Listen "Towards Personalized Vasopressor Support"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Critical Matters, we will discuss hypotension and new data on Angiotensin II within the context of our path towards personalized vasopressor support.
Our guest is Dr. Ashish K. Khanna. Dr. Khanna is an anesthesia and critical care practicing physician. He is Associate Professor, and Section Head for Research, in the Department of Anesthesiology, Section on Critical Care Medicine of the Wake Forest School of Medicine, in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. He is a prolific author and researcher and was the lead author of the ATHOS-3 study in the New England Journal of Medicine. The results of which led to the approval of Angiotensin II as a vasopressor for the treatment of refractory hypotension in adults with septic or other types of distributive shock.
