Wow, this is crazy! It’s amazing to see how much love my Avengers as pressors series has been getting 😁 The following is a thread with all 7 pressors for easy access!

Thanks for the idea @ETSshow!

1/9

#MedEd #pressors #criticalcare #medicaleducation #avengers
The first Avenger: Norepinephrine as Captain America, the typical first line pressor.

2/9
Epinephrine as Iron Man, always good in a crisis.

3/9
Low-Dose Dopamine as Bruce Banner and High-Dose Dopamine as the Hulk. Different effects at different strengths!

4/9
Vasopressin as Bucky Barnes. Best buds with Captain America (I.e. Norepinephrine).

5/9
Phenylephrine as Hawkeye. The go-to peripheral pusher.

6/9
Milrinone as Loki, who we love but also sometimes hate 😂 Watch out for hypotension as a side effect.

7/9
And finally Dobutamine as Thor, the heartthrob. Great for cardiogenic shock and refractory heart failure.

8/9
That’s all for now! Maybe someday in the future I’ll expand this series, would be nice to include some ladies as well 💃🏼💪🏼 Happy learning!

9/9
P.S I’ve seen this series making the rounds on Facebook! It’s awesome to see so many people having fun learning Medicine 😊 But if you do see this I would appreciate if you redirect them to my Twitter or Insta so they can find the original source! Thank you!! ❤️
