Use of arginine vasopressin in the absence of diabetes insipidus: a case study.

This case study details the use of arginine vasopressin in a pediatric organ donor. Although arginine vasopressin is primarily administered for its antidiuretic effects in the treatment of diabetes insipidus, the study demonstrates the often overlooked vasoactive effect of arginine vasopressin and its use in a patient without diabetes insipidus.
