Modified Quick Change Method for Norepinephrine Syringe Exchange in Critically Ill Patients: A Quasi-randomized, Non-inferiority Trial
The mQC method of syringe exchange was not inferior to the DP method in critically ill patients receiving a continuous intravenous norepinephrine infusion. Given its comparable safety profile and simpler procedure, the mQC method has the potential to become a standard exchange technique. However, future large-scale randomized controlled trials are required to verify our findings.
