Rationale for change
Dopamine increases renal blood flow. Low dose dopamine does this. If dopamine levels are generally low, that would worsen blood flow
in healthy adult volunteers, the administration of a low dose dopamine increases renal blood flow and induces natriuresis and diuresis[116,117]. For these reasons, a low-dose dopamine represents a therapeutic option to limit or prevent renal failure in critically ill patients by increasing renal blood flow
