Hemodynamic changes after propacetamol administration in patients with febrile UTI in the emergency department
The American Journal of Emergency Medicine Oct 30, 2017
Kang S, et al. - Researchers performed analysis of the hemodynamic changes after propacetamol administration in patients visiting the ED (emergency department) due to febrile UTI (urinary tract infection). In addition, they determined the incidence of propacetamol-induced hypotension and compared the clinical characteristics of patients with persistent hypotension, defined as requiring additional fluids or vasopressors, to those with transient hypotension. Although hemodynamic changes were evident among febrile UTI patients treated with propacetamol, these changes seemed to not have a large effect on their prognosis. However, they recommended considering the possibility of developing persistent hypotension in patients who showed bacteremia or a normal initial BP despite fever.
