Pragmatic Pediatric Trial of Balanced Versus Normal Saline Fluid in Sepsis: A Pilot Feasibility...

ShockSeptic

The objective of this pilot study is to assess overall feasibility prior to embarking on a larger randomized pragmatic trial comparing the clinical effectiveness of fluid resuscitation with NS versus LR for pediatric patients with suspected septic shock. Necessary feasibility assessments include ensuring appropriate compliance with study fluid in each of the two arms, effectiveness of study enrollment using a pragmatic study design embedded within routine clinical practice, and acceptability of using Exception from Informed Consent (EFIC).

Orange Park Out-of-Hospital Quality Improvement Study for Improving CMS Sepsis Core Measures

SepsisEmergency Medical Services4 more

The goal of this quality improvement study is to measure the impact of incorporation of a manual rapid fluid infuser (RFI) for intravenous crystalloid infusion in patients with suspected sepsis in the prehospital interval. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: Does the intervention affect the timeliness of fluid administration? Does the intervention affect CMS sepsis bundle care measure compliance? Does the intervention affect processes and outcomes of care? Are there any adverse effects? Researchers will compare this intervention to use of more conventional gravity or pressure-infusion bag crystalloid infusion.

Protocolized Reduction of Non-resuscitation Fluids vs Usual Care in Septic Shock

ShockSeptic

The objectives of this feasibility trial are to assess the efficacy and feasibility of methods and procedures of a protocol purposed to compare a reduction of administration of non-resuscitation fluids to usual care in patients with septic shock.

Heamodynamic Effects of Paracetamol in Septic Shock Patients

Septic ShockSepsis

Sepsis is life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Septic shock is defined as sepsis that has circulatory, cellular, and metabolic abnormalities that are associated with a greater risk of mortality than sepsis alone. Clinically, this includes patients who fulfill the criteria for sepsis who, despite adequate fluid resuscitation, require vasopressors to maintain a mean arterial pressure ≥65 mmHg and have a lactate >2 mmol/L (>18 mg/dL). Feve is a common sign of infection in septic shock critically ill patients. Many critically ill patients experience pain. Paracetamol is considered safe and currently one of the most common antipyretics and used as part of multimodal analgesia for acute pain in the intensive care unit. According to the company's product information leaflet, the rate of hypotension complicating intravenous paracetamol treatment ranges from 0.01 to 0.1%. However, recent studies reported a much higher incidence and may be harmful in critically ill adults. The hemodynamic effects of intravenous (IV) paracetamol are unknown in septic shock patients, that the most vulnerable population and hemodynamically unstable. The aim of this study is to assess the incidence of hypotension of the extended intravenous paracetamol (acetaminophen) infusion over three hours in comparing with intravenous paracetamol bolus over 15 minutes in hemodynamically unstable patients (septic shock).

Impact of Continuous Venovenous Haemofiltration on Organ Failure During the Early Phase of Severe...

BacteremiaGram-Negative Bacterial Infections6 more

The impact of continuous veno-venous haemofiltration (CVVH) on sepsis-induced multiple organ failure severity is controversial. We thus sought to assess the effect of early application of haemofiltration on the degree of organ dysfunction and plasma cytokine levels in patients with severe sepsis or septic shock.

Population Pharmacokinetics and Monte Carlo Dosing Simulations of Meropenem During the Early Phase...

Initial Phase of Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock

This is a prospective, noncomparative study to assess the pharmacodynamics of meropenem during early phase of severe sepsis and septic shock in critically ill patients in an intensive care unit. Clinical and laboratory data such as age,sex, body weight, electrolyte, vital signs, APACHE II score, SOFA score, BUN, Cr and blood culture will be collected. Twelve patients will be enrolled in this study. Meropenem pharmacokinetic will be carried out during the first and second dose after 1g meropenem administration. Blood samples (approximately 3 ml) will be obtained by direct venepuncture at the following time: 0, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5, 10, 12, 14 and 16 h. Meropenem assays will be performed by modified method of Ozkan et al. (Biomed. Chromatogr., 2001). The pharmacokinetics of meropenem will be modelled from concentration-time profile using compartmental model. Monte Carlo simulation to assess PK/PD index as 40% and 100% T>MIC will be conducted and the results will be reported as % PTA (Probability Target Attainment) and %CFR (Cumulative Faction Response)

Quality Improvement in Infection COntrol and Sepsis Management in MOdel Regions

SepsisSevere Sepsis1 more

The German Quality Network Sepsis is an association trying to improve quality of care for patients with sepsis, severe sepsis and septic shock or being in risc thereof. The icosmos trial investigates the impact on the use of routine data, a risk adjustment algorithm and feedback to all hospitals as well as a structured implementation for regular screening for deteriorating patients, and education on in-hospital mortality.
