BCCCP Clinical Session — The Big Squeeze: Mastering Rescue Therapies for Vasoplegia

This session provides a comprehensive update on the pathophysiology and management of vasoplegia, specifically targeting pharmacists who practice in the operating room and ICU. This session will address critical knowledge gaps regarding selection and management of non-traditional agents in this setting. Earlier identification and proactive use of these agents will assist attendees in successfully managing patients through an algorithmic approach.

This activity is approved for Board Certified Critical Care Pharmacist (BCCCP) recertification credit.

The BCCCP Clinical Sessions are part of the professional development program for the recertification of board-certified Critical Care pharmacists by the Board of Pharmacy Specialties and jointly provided by ACCP and the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP). In order to earn the BCCCP recertification credit, participants must attend the session, claim the continuing pharmacy education credit, and pass the associated posttest.  Access to the Clinical Sessions posttests will be available on December 16, 2026, at www.accp.com/myaccount to anyone who has purchased access to the BCCCP posttests. For participants who have not purchased access to the posttests, access can be purchased until 12:00 p.m. on Tuesday, October 20, at the ACCP Registration Desk. The deadline to submit posttests for these sessions will be December 14, 2027.
