Why are Vasoactive Drugs Important in Neonatal Care?
Newborns, especially premature infants, often face challenges in maintaining stable blood pressure and adequate perfusion. Conditions like neonatal sepsis, persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN), and congenital heart defects can lead to circulatory complications. Vasoactive drugs play a pivotal role in managing these conditions by ensuring adequate blood flow and oxygenation.
