Summary

We hypothesized that the increase in MAP from 65 mmHg to patients' usual level improved sublingual microcirculation.

Detailed description

The effect of mean arterial pressure (MAP) titration to higher level on microcirculation in septic shock patients with previous hypertension remains unknown. Our goal was to assess the effect of MAP titration to patients' usual level on microcirculation in septic shock patients with previous hypertension. We hypothesized that the increase in MAP from 65 mmHg to patients' usual level improved sublingual microcirculation.
