From: Vasopressin in septic shock: effects on pancreatic, renal, and hepatic blood flow
Microcirculatory blood flow of the liver, the pancreas, and the kidney measured with laser Doppler flowmetry during septic shock. A continuous infusion of vasopressin (0.06 IU/kg per hour) was started at t = 300 minutes in animals in group SV. Animals in group S received intravenous saline only. Results are presented as individual curves. Microcirculatory blood flow is expressed as changes relative to the baseline values (t = 0 minutes). #p < 0.01 compared to t = 300 minutes. Group S, septic control group; group SV, septic test group treated with vasopressin.
