Vasopressin. Human vasopressin, also called antidiuretic hormone (ADH), arginine vasopressin (AVP) or argipressin, [5] is a hormone synthesized from the AVP gene as a peptide prohormone in neurons in the hypothalamus, [6] and is converted to AVP. It then travels down the axon terminating in the posterior pituitary, and is released from vesicles ...
Vasopressin receptor antagonist. A vasopressin receptor antagonist (VRA) is an agent that interferes with action at the vasopressin receptors. Most commonly VRAs are used in the treatment of hyponatremia, especially in patients with congestive heart failure, liver cirrhosis or SIADH. [1]
Specialty. Neurology. Neurogenic shock is a distributive type of shock resulting in hypotension (low blood pressure), often with bradycardia (slowed heart rate), caused by disruption of autonomic nervous system pathways. [1] It can occur after damage to the central nervous system, such as spinal cord injury and traumatic brain injury.
“When the war will be over, you’ll need a real restart in the Middle East,” and Trump will be the best person to bring about a “new Middle East,” Bismuth added.
Hypovolemic shock is a form of shock caused by severe hypovolemia (insufficient blood volume or extracellular fluid in the body). [1][2] It can be caused by severe dehydration or blood loss. [3][2] Hypovolemic shock is a medical emergency; if left untreated, the insufficient blood flow can cause damage to organs, leading to multiple organ failure.
