What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Shock is a life-threatening condition which can cause multiple organ failure and even death. One characteristic of shock is low blood pressure which is managed with drugs called vasopressors. Most frequently used vasopressors are noradrenaline, vasopressin and recently also angiotensin II. Angiotensin II is present in the body and has a physiological role in maintaining blood pressure in healthy persons. Renin is an enzyme and a key factor in angiotensin II production in the body. In patients with shock, there is a lack of angiotensin II and an excess of renin in the body. Due to the literature renin has the potential to be a marker of severity of shock. Synthetic angiotensin II is used in patients with shock in whom we cannot normalize the blood pressure with noradrenaline and vasopressin. Regarding scientific data, the use of synthetic angiotensin II reduces the dose of noradrenaline a
