[Vasopressin in distributive shock : Brief summary of the guidelines of the Canadian Critical Care Society published in December 2019].
Der Anaesthesist 2020 March
The Canadian Critical Care Society performed a meta- analysis to assess the benefits and risks of the application of vasopressin and vasopressin- analogues in distributive shock. Their results were formulated as a Guideline in 2019. In the meta- analysis mainly included were studies with patients suffering from sepsis causing the distributive shock. The recommendations of the Surviving Sepsis Campaign 2016 concerning catecholamine therapy clearly prefer norepinephrin as the first- choice vasopressor, the use of vasopressin as an additionally administered drug is rated more tentative. Also the Canadian guideline now, implicating recently published studies, argues for the use of vasopressin or vasopressin- analogues in addition to an existing norepinephrine therapy, even though the level of evidence remains still low and there's no simple therapeutic algorithm formulated. This is based on a lowered incidence of newly- diagnosed atrial fibrillation and decreased mortality rate while administration remains safe.
