Septic sheep randomized to early, rapid volume resuscitation had greater vasopressor requirements 12 hours after initial fluid bolus. It is suggested that rapid, fluid resuscitation generates an abrupt rise in atrial natriuretic peptide, shears the glycocalyx which then impairs vascular reactivity. more than 2].
