Medication that increases vascular resistance and blood pressure

what is a vasopressin?

300

protamine

What is an unfractionated heparin reversal agent?

300

substernal discomfort, paranesthesia, dyspnea, restlessness, fatigue, malaise, progressive respiratory difficulty, refractory hypoxemia, alveolar atelectasis, alveolar infiltrates that are evident on chest xray

what are signs and symptoms of oxygen toxicity?
