The Platelet Transfusion in Cerebral Hemorrhage (PATCH) trial, a trial of platelet transfusion in patients on antiplatelet agents with cerebral hemorrhage, suggested that platelets worsened outcomes. Reanalysis of the data by the investigators revealed that despite randomization, some, if not all, of the adverse effects of platelets reflected worse baseline hemorrhage in patients in the platelet arm.

This case study reviews appropriate antiplatelet treatment options for an older patient post-myocardial infarction and stent placement. This case investigates the benefits and risks associated with antiplatelet agents in older people and what patient- and drug-specific factors, such as adverse effects and drug interactions, to consider when choosing treatment.

Haemodynamic instability is one of the main reasons for admission to critical care. Often patients will require medication to provide cardiovascular support. This chapter discusses cardiovascular drugs and includes discussion on β‎-adrenergic agonists, phosphodiesterase inhibitors, vasodilators, vasopressors, antiarrhythmics in intensive care, chronotropes, antianginal agents, antiplatelet agents, diuretics and the critically ill, and levosimendan. These medications are part of the daily practise in intensive care. Knowledge of the indications, interactions, and adverse effects is essential.
