Impact of Higher Versus Lower Blood Pressure Targets on Pulmonary Vascular Hemodynamics During Intensive Care After Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest.

Acta anaesthesiologica Scandinavica·August 1, 2026·PMID 42399677

Why it matters

It clarifies that vasopressor-driven higher MAP targets in post-OHCA care do not worsen pulmonary vascular load and may transiently reduce PVR, informing hemodynamic management in the ICU.
