Surgery Definition – How to optimized organ perfusion?
Organ perfusion is optimized by optimizing the afterload or perfusion pressure. Perfusion pressure can be optimized by maintaining adequate cardiac output and volume status. Vasopressor is only considered in the case of low blood pressure despite adequate cardiac output and volume. Vasopressor will increase the vascular system resistance and lead to a raise in the blood pressure to perfuse the vital organ.
The common form of vasopressor includes noradrenaline/ norepinephrine which is a vasopressor that causes peripheral vasoconstriction and phenylephrine which is a vasopressor that lead to peripheral vasoconstriction. The treatment via vasopressor should be titrated against the mean arterial pressure of the patient.
