Peripheral IV access for ED patients with septic shock

Abstract:

“Importantly, even with these reassuringly low rates of serious complications from peripheral vasopressors, this same meta-analysis also discovered that there were fewer complications (extravasation and thrombosis) in studies reporting infusion safety guidelines. Therefore, emergency providers should be cognizant of the need for safety protocols to guide site selection, catheter gauge, and site monitoring when utilizing peripheral intravenous catheters for vasopressors.”
