Serum Biomarkers to Predict Response to Angiotensin II in Septic Shock

This trial will be a randomized controlled single-center pilot trial comparing the use of angiotensin II versus standard-of-care (SOC) vasopressor therapy in adult patients with persistent vasodilatory shock despite moderate-dose norepinephrine, with a primary outcome of the ability of novel biomarkers (renin and DPP3) to predict blood pressure response to angiotensin II. Given our angiotensin II will be compared to SOC, this will be an unblinded study.

Comparison of Angiotensin II to Standard Dose Vasopressors on Change in Arterial Elastance

A study to see whether a medication called Angiotensin II works better than the routinely used medication to raise blood pressure in people with liver disease who are experiencing a serious drop in blood pressure. The investigators want to find out if Angiotensin II can help the heart and blood vessels work together more effectively than standard treatments.

Synthetic Angiotensin II/Giapreza in Pediatric Patients With Refractory Hypotension

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the safety and efficacy of Angiotensin-II in the treatment of pediatric patients in fluid refractory vasodilatory shock. The main questions it aims to answer are: * To evaluate the change in blood pressure or reduction of vasoactive requirements (norepinephrine equivalent dosing) after initiating Angiotensin II * To establish the safety and tolerability of Angiotensin-II in pediatric patients Participants will receive Angiotensin-II in addition to standard of care therapy for vasodilatory shock. * The study team will then monitor the patient's vital signs, blood work, and for any potential side effects from the drug. * An ultrasound will be performed to look at blood flow through the kidney in the setting of vasodilatory shock. * A follow up phone call to check in with the patient will be performed 28 days after enrollment.

Efficacy and Safety of Angiotensin II Injection Versus Placebo in Patients With Refractory Distributed Shock

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study on the treatment of refractory distributed shock with angiotensin II injection, with a random ratio of 1:1. Assuming a success rate of 25% for the main therapeutic endpoint in the control group and 50% for the experimental group, a total of 214 subjects will be enrolled, including 107 in the experimental group and 107 in the control group.
