Vasopressin Units/min — ICU Infusion Calculator

Calculate vasopressin infusion rate for ICU patients, converting units/min or units/hour to mL/hr based on concentration, for use as a catecholamine-sparing vasopressor in septic shock.

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Calculate vasopressin infusion rate for ICU patients, converting units/min or units/hour to mL/hr based on concentration, for use as a catecholamine-sparing vasopressor in septic shock

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Concentration — The concentration recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the vasopressin dose result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the concentration for the scenario you are assessing. Calculate vasopressin infusion rate for ICU patients, converting units/min or units/hour to mL/hr based on concentration, for use as a catecholamine-sparing vasopressor in septic shock. Use the vasopressin dose result to inform your calculation.
