title: Current concepts on myocardial depressant factor.
abstract: In the present work the authors have tried to offer a vast and detailed summary of theories and questions concerning the role of the MDF in shock. One of the major problems that surrounds this molecule is the myocardial contractility depression, the solution of which could allow a more rationalistic therapeutic approach to that which remains one of the most complex and delicate clinical framework.
