why dopamine and dobutamine are mg/KG/min ,

[@lisatowe778]

Dr Seheult, you are incredibly gifted and i love listening and learning. I am a nurse and you make the "why", which is how i learn, come alive. Thank you sir for your generosity in putting this out there for us

[@Medcram]

+Lisa Towe thank you! There are also free videos over at Medcram.com

[@andrewzack6559]

Ditto

[@nataliebusse514]

I am a nurse and listen to lost of your lectures. It has helped my learning so much! It is so appreciated!

[@michaelmico1979]

I’m a LVN and i’m taking the prerequisites for the RN bridge program. My goal is to either be a ER or ICU nurse and then be a flight nurse. I’m glad I came across your channel. I’m watching them for the hell of it and I’m sure when I start the RN program, everything that I’m learing from your channel will come in handy.

[@fidelisetverus]

Wished I had this medcram video when I was doing my critical care internship. I struggles to understand them. My preceptor was so knowledge but i just couldn't understand his explanations and felt so intimidated by his knowledge and everything else going on with our pts as well. Did slowly learned them and stuck it out. Stayed for 26 yrs and justight come.back to ICU as I've enjoined having to push myself learn more. Can't explain it. I'll be watching more of your videos for sure. Thanks for explaining it where it is easy to comprehend. This will be helpful to so many med students and nurses at bedside, especially in ICU. 👍

[@Hopeof7suns]

Literally one of the best to the point mini lectures I’ve ever seen . Watching this bc I’m going to apply for CVICU RN bc I’m maxed out in my cards role currently. Looks like I’ll have plenty to learn and looks like a lot of fun. Thanks!!

[@bestmonicaever9260]

Elizabeth Askander how are you liking the CVICU?

[@_prettybrownbrown7729]

This was great .! I left the ICU but went back because of COVID needs and this was a great review. These patients decline so fast .

[@mmrmmr5246]

WOW! This explanation of Vasopressors are awesome. This really gives me the confidence that I needed to be a better ICU nurse. Thank you

[@Sopranaur]

im a med student and I basically learn all the med materials from your channel. This episode totally helps me from memorizing the algorithm of advance cardiac life support. Thank you Sir!

[@Medcram]

Thank you for the comment. We have more videos available at our site MedCram.com.

[@TeamFoust]

Helping me be a better nurse and get ready for CRNA school. Thanks!

[@metalmilitia89]

As a pediatric ICU fellow, thanks for this. Nice review.

[@haridasramanathan2485]

Great teaching never had anything exlpained so clearly

[@Medcram]

Good to hear, thank you!

[@Tu_aape_krta8266]

Best video on vasopressors

[@Ahdree23]

Thank you for this! The other ICU page is so boring, this is straight to the point and illustrations help.

[@lawron2]

How I wished my critical care professor could've explained this in class when I needed it the most.

[@ShadeTreeCardiology]

What an excellent explanation! Everyone should watch this!

[@jonggrieco]

your videos are so easy to follow, Thank you, more power, good health and God bless you!!!..

[@Medcram]

Thanks for your comment!

[@jessicakell1454]

Your video is amazing! Thank you for posting. I'm new in the ICU and this video has been tremendously helpful.

[@JESUSISLORD7777]

THANK YOU VERY MUCH I LEARN ALOT ❤️MUCH BLESSINGS FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY 🙏🏽

[@travelnurse4444]

Thank you sir...!!! Understand verywell i got very good idea about from this. I am from 🇱🇰

[@karinagerein2145]

This is SO helpful!! I had to read a long wordy article to figure out all of these pressors.. great visual

[@cristinaciuffreda2881]

Hi! May be possible to have a similar video regarding inotropes meds instead please? This one about vasopressors is very clear and perfect, it would be perfect having one about inotropes as well or even about the main differences between the 2 groups of drugs! Thanks a lot, I really love your videos!:)

[@alicekim6725]

Amazing explanation. Thank you so much. That was so easy to understand!!!!!!

[@RicAdel-t5s]

Thanks a lot for sharing your talents

[@estebantspn5962]

Omg one of the greatest videos and well explained in KZbin 🥰🥰🥰

[@Medcram]

Thank you so much 😀

[@steveabraham3052]

This is an great video for review of vasopressors & their mechanism of action. Question though... in my region of the country we administer all vasopressors weight-based, ie; mcg/kg/min. I my area of practice, I do encounter some pressors in mcg/min. That frustrates me, because I’m told by the sending nurse “They’re maxed out on Levo...” I get there and find them on 5 mcg/min of Levo and think to myself, “That’s no where near max dose...” Why is it that weight-based pharmacotherapy isn’t universal? Thank you so much for the FOAM.

[@micahandme8078]

Thanks for the video! This tied together a few loose ends in regard to pressors and got me thinking about indications for each. Big 'a-ha' moments for this RN who had worked in ED and with inotropics in end stage HF. Great job at explaining.

[@Medcram]

Thank you, great to hear!

[@deogettic]

This video perfectly explains the medications that were mentioned in the video. It provides great insight on the various pressors and inotropes. Super helpful video. Many thanks for this video

[@Kavina9049]

Very useful and good information for medical student

[@tammybambini1096]

you might want to switch to µg/kg/min as unit of dosing *all* continuous applied vasopressors instead of µg/min - because giving 20µg/min is different if you have a 40kg versus a 150kg patient. With µg/kg/min you can compare the need of pressor support between patients (and say: "gosh, that´s high, I need to consider other causes/actions"). I do see the problem that this is an institutional thing - if everyone is using ml/h (with various concentrations of pressors) and you´re the only one to use µg/gk/min (or gamma, as we colloquially call it) that might lead to problems in understanding...

[@KINGSPOINT.NY.2024]

Great educational video. Thanks and cheers from NYC!

[@lorib5323]

Finally, I understand the difference between the vasopressors. I didn't understand how a alpha pressor could work when a Beta 2 was also being stimulated. I had no idea they were stimulating at different strengths... ugh... NOW I KNOW!

[@taylorscott7402]

4 years ago I was diagnosed of HUNTINGTON DISEASE and I have tried all I can to get cured but all to no avail, until i saw a post in a health forum about a herbalist man who prepare herbal medication to cure all kind of diseases including HUNTINGTON DISEASE , at first i doubted if it was real but decided to give it a try, when i contact this herbalist via his email and he prepared an HUNTINGTON DISEASE herbal cure and sent it to me via UPS delivery company service,when i received this herbal cure, he gave me step by directions on how to apply it, when i applied it as instructed, i was totally cured of this deadly disease within 1 months of usage, I am now free from HUNTINGTON DISEASE ,all thanks to Dr Joshua Ighalo. you can also reach this great herbal doctor for help . He can help get rid of yours permanently.. Also specialize in treating all kinds of illness, HERPES VIRUS, HEPATITIS B, CANCER, BRAIN DISEASE, INFERTILITY, DIABETES AND MORE. ....

Thanks for the comment and enthusiasm!

[@kitimandiri]

Thank you thank you this video delivered an explanation clearly, as promised.

[@Bunicutaintelectuala]

Elegantly done, nice job!

[@fontosnem8468]

That's just more than awesome!!!!!!! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ Extremely helpful!!!!

[@mrcharlesjohnson]

You are truly awesome for this, thank you so much!!

[@ChloeDunIT]

Great video! But what about “alpha2” receptors?

[@judypeng4748]

Where is the next video?

[@beccabee94]

Would I have permission to recreate your table for a CVICU nurse education program I am putting together for my unit? With an appropriate citation of course!

[@SCGNiagara101]

Thanks so much for the detailed yet easy-to-comprehend explanation.

[@Ssheldon618]

Is there or can there be a lecture on warm versus cold shock? These are great videos and I feel like my understanding would be improved if there were a video about the two. Than you.

[@bigred7347]

Thumbs up Remember......there is always something undiscovered.......That's what my wife has.......good Job , continue on DOCTOR's . Doctor is a big deal , because that's what you are or could be. Love you guys.....Please continue...I am depending on it......

[@vickygreenday.4404]

Great understanding 😃

[@donabelanderson1899]

Thank you 🙏 so much for the explanation

[@tonydebaka3967]

I am not studying to become a doctor but I love watching your vids. You make the subject matter very interesting to non medical school audience and it surly takes talent to do that. Is it possible for a CHF patient to be on both Dopamine and dopedimine simultaneously?

[@thepharmacistacademy]

Never let me down ! Thanks

[@ally705]

Why do we usually start with levophed ?

[@edmundpolicarpio]

Thanks for explaining this!!!!

[@abodeashehri]

amazing clarification, thank you

[@jacobprudhomme]

I thought levophed didn’t have much in the way of chronotropic stimulation? B1 is made out to seem from your initial explanation that B1 includes HR inherently.

[@makabongwemdluli3907]

this video is so helpful, thank you

[@Medcram]

Glad to hear it's helpful. Thank you for watching.

[@brianfoley4328]

Outstanding...just brilliant

[@Medcram]

Thank you!

[@Nathan-or2hl]

Because beta blockers typically block B2 receptors, does that mean they have a vasoconstricting effect as well?

[@zemenea6104]

No it's the reverse... they have vasodilation effect.

[@bill4485]

Depending on the institution or facility, epi, norepi and phenylephrine can all be weight based dosing.

[@BAj-if2sl]

Great video. Thank you so much!

[@bengbeng1754]

Easy to understand... Thank you for sharing 🙋

[@vitordan2668]

Excelent Video!!

[@Medcram]

Thank you!

[@tahoefor]

Why is Epinephrine given in EpiPen and isn't Alpha-1, Beta-1 are doing the opposite? Thank you so much for explaining.

[@KHouseholder011]

I believe it's given for the vasodilatory effect on the lungs/trachea in that situation, not for the vasoconstrictive properties.

[@jamesclark4544]

Are you asking if stimulating alpha 1 and beta 1 is counterproductive?

[@hilkkatitus9880]

Thank you for this video. Keep it up.

[@suklangkhongsdir2585]

Thanks...it's very helpful

[@Medcram]

Glad to hear you found our videos helpful. Thank you for watching.

nice colors and style of presenting medcram . but plz dont give out incorrect information. THE IS THE FIRST DICTUM IN MEDICINE IS DO NOT DO ANY HARM -HIPPOCRATES

[@Emz_Sam2023]

Hi Want to ask if the patient is allergic to phenylephrine , dose that mean he is allergic to norepinephrine or epinephrine? Thank you

[@DarkAngel-cj6sx]

VM/VMA ratio high 4. How do I get dopamine transform into norepinephrine?

[@denicci]

This is amazing. Thank you for sharing this!!

[@vivekbio11]

Thank you ...it's amazing 👏

[@Blinn2330]

My oh my how your new mic is so much better than this recording!

[@IVFRegulation]

What about other class of durgs such as Flavonids (e.g. Daflon), How does it work? Thanx

[@director2345]

Should norepinephrine be used for autonomic disorder ?

[@nordaspence1561]

Awesome video!!! Easy to follow thank you for sharing.

[@josezamora-v8t]

Thanks!

[@KHouseholder011]

So, in the Beta-2 column, the dots actually mean it acts as a vasodilator rather than a vasoconstrictor?

[@Medcram]

Yes.

[@محمداليحيى-ل1ع]

Very greatful to your effort thank you

[@Smart-Skippy]

Amiodarone... Where does this fit into things, please ?

[@jamesclark4544]

Amiodarone is an antiarrhythmic drug, and is commonly used during certain cardiac dysrhythmias like persistent ventricular tachycardia, with and without pulses, and ventricular fibrillation. I believe amiodarone has a blocking effect on the calcium, potassium, and sodium channels in the (lower?) heart, so it works to slow down the ventricles..... ACLS has amiodarone as a push dose for pulses v tach and v fib, and has a drip dose rate for vtach with pulses..... As far as I know it doesn't have any effects on alpha receptors... that's all I know as a paramedic student lol!! Hope that helps :)

[@chelseachelsea4290]

Thank you so much this is AWESOME

[@nsas955]

What about alpha 2 receptors?

[@JustKay_77]

Very good 👍

[@houston10]

Well done

[@ARsoldier93]

What does Alpha 2 do?

[@bellefeu4933]

no benefit for low dose dopamine? That's news to me, thank you, I'll look into it!

[@AngelOne11]

Nicely done. Thank you!

[@IM.MEDICAL]

Very useful! 👍

[@Olga3SP]

Great video! Thank you so much!!! Wish someone would explain Alpha-2 to me. Had a question about Norepinephrine.

[@PurpleAmiga]

Why is Isoproterenol classified as Vasoconstrictor if it has effect on Beta 1 and 2 only?

[@andrewlillys3486]

Thank you

[@shaaronxxx]

I see only pediatric patients PICU. I think you have yo give diference between dosage Example norepinefrine the max dosage 2mcg/kg/min. And te other vasopressors is also different.

[@ogpowell1]

Amazing video!!

[@sxli3340]

why dopamine and dobutamine are mg/KG/min , whereas others aren't??

[@sksksk8623]

ok i dont get it whats the difference if its a "pure" vasoconstriction?

[@kirstinstrand6292]

Another creator states that Epinephrine improves sleep dreams...makes more. What do you think? I think not.
