Abstract
Objective: To understand the effect of prolonged intravenous acetaminophen infusion on blood pressure.
Materials and methods: We retrospectively studied a cohort of intensive care patients receiving initial intravenous acetaminophen. We used propensity score matching to adjust for differences between patients who were classified into two groups: control (acetaminophen infusion for 15 minutes) and prolonged administration (acetaminophen infusion for > 15 minutes).
Results: After acetaminophen administration, diastolic blood pressure was unchanged in the control group, and was significantly lower at 30 and 60 minutes in the prolonged administration group.
Conclusion: Prolonged duration of acetaminophen infusion did not prevent acetaminophen-induced blood pressure reduction.
