Study Summary

At present, there is conflicting evidence regarding outcomes in patients with septic shock receiving weight-based vasopressor (WBVP) versus non-weight-based vasopressor (NWBVP) dosing strategies. At MCMC, a weight-based strategy is in place whereas MDMC, MMMC and MRMC currently utilize a non-weight-based dosing strategy. Obese patients (BMI \> 30) receiving either strategy may potentially be receiving substantially more or less vasopressor exposure compared to their non-obese (BMI \< 30) counterparts. Determining total vasopressor exposure and assessing clinical outcomes would benefit our institution and others by providing optimal vasopressor dosing strategies in obese and non-obese patients. There is a difference in clinical outcomes between patients receiving weight-based and non-weight-based vasopressor dosing strategies. There is a difference in total vasopressor exposure between obese and non-obese patients utilizing WBVP and NWBVP strategies.
