Summary
Catecholamines infusion is a major component of septic shock management. International
guidelines recommend that norepinephrine should be preferred to epinephrine, though phase III
trials are lacking. The present study aimed at comparing the efficacy and safety of
norepinephrine plus dobutamine to that of epinephrine in adults with septic shock.
