Diastolic blood pressure (DBP) effects of epinephrine per dose. While there is a significant effect of epinephrine in each dose, this effect is only sufficient to generate a DBP of greater than 30 mmHg in the first 2 doses. This threshold value was selected because of the previously demonstrated survival benefit associated with generating and maintaining a DBP > 30 mmHg during CPR in children [48]
