SCCM Resource Library-Vasopressors during CPR: Protocolized Versus Hemodynamic-Directed

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video presentation, Allie Marquez, a pediatric intensivist, discusses the use of vasopressors, specifically epinephrine, during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). She highlights the importance of epinephrine in achieving return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) during CPR and the historical background of its use. Marquez reviews the current guidelines for administering epinephrine in pediatric patients and the evidence supporting the timing and intervals of its administration. She also discusses the use of hemodynamic-directed CPR, which involves monitoring the patient's physiological response to CPR efforts and titrating vasopressor therapy accordingly. Marquez concludes with recommendations for clinical practice and suggests further areas of research in this field.
