- Abstract
The article discusses a study conducted by scientists A. Morelli and coworkers on septic shock which represents maximum physical stresses to the organism and physiological response to sepsis includes increased release of cachotelamines and cardiac beta 1-adrenergic receptors. Topics discussed include hemodynamic stabilization, benefit of the combination of esmolol and milrinone in sepsis, and use of beta-blockers.
