Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication of vasodilatory shock. AKI is associated with an increased risk of death, prolonged hospital stays, and subsequent transition to chronic kidney disease. Catecholamines have historically been used as the first-line vasopressors for vasodilatory shock; however, they may adversely affect renal function and recovery. ⋯ Conclusions: Preclinical and clinical studies suggest that non-catecholamine vasopressors may confer renal benefits compared to catecholamine vasopressors. These hypothesis-generating observations suggest the need for comparative studies focused on renal outcomes. Systematic Review Registration: PROSPERO 2024 CRD42024527773.
