Vasoactive drugs (e.g. inotropes), namely adrenaline and noradrenaline, are frequently used in critical care to maintain cardiovascular function. This is achieved by ensuring that a continuous infusion of the vasoactive drug is administered so that when one infusion is about to finish another infusion is commenced. This is known as "double pumping" or "piggy backing". Failure to administer these drugs appropriately may result in haemodynamic instability (hypotension and hypertension) and in extreme cases death.
