Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the impact of acetaminophen on blood pressure in critically ill sepsis patients, particularly comparing it to intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), as both contain mannitol.
  • Results showed that hypotension occurred significantly more in patients receiving acetaminophen (58%) compared to those receiving IVIG (36.9%), indicating a higher risk associated with acetaminophen use.
  • The findings suggest a need for further research to better understand how mannitol in acetaminophen affects blood pressure in these patients.
