PLatelets Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase Phosphorylation State in SEPtic Shock

Septic ShockPlatelet Signal Processing Defect4 more

Knowing the dramatic increase in thrombin generation during sepsis, our research hypothesis is that AMPK-induced ACC phosphorylation in platelets is increased and that this might modulate platelets metabolism and more particularly platelets inflammatory mediators content, coming from AA and lipids.

COMPACT 2 - COMbining Plasma-filtration and Adsorption Clinical Trial 2

ShockSeptic

The study objective is to clarify whether the application of high doses CPFA (coupled plasma-filtration adsorption) in addition to the current clinical practice is able to reduce hospital mortality in septic shock patients in intensive care unit (ICU).

Hypertonic Saline and Terlipressin for Sepsis-associated Hypotension

Septic ShockSepsis-associated Hypotension

In hypotensive septic patients with controlled source, an hemodynamic management protocol including hypertonic saline (HS)and terlipressin improves MOD (Multiple Organ Dysfunction) Score by at least 3 points compared to the use of physiologic saline and norepinephrine. The appropriate design for this trial would be factorial. For the time being, will consider de intervention as a whole unit for this pilot study. In the future an appropriately sized factorial multicentric study shall be necessary. Other goals of the pilot study: HS restores preload parameters adequately HS associated with terlipressin normalizes blood pressure in septic shock HS associated with terlipressin maintains plasma sodium levels 130-155mEq/L There is an inverse relationship between plasma sodium and procalcitonin levels HS increases plasma levels of vasopressin (AVP) HS rises levels of cortisol but not of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)

Selepressin Evaluation Programme for Sepsis-Induced Shock - Adaptive Clinical Trial

Septic Shock

This is a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, two-part adaptive clinical trial. The trial is designed to investigate the efficacy and safety of multiple dosing regimens of selepressin and to confirm the efficacy and safety of one dosing regimen in treatment of adult patients with septic shock requiring vasopressor.

Midodrine in the Recovery Phase of Septic Shock

Septic Shock

The aim of this study is to investigate the role of oral midodrine in the recovery of septic shock. The investigators hypothesize that the oral drug can reduce central line days and ICU length of stay.

Phenylephrine Versus Norepinephrine for Septic Shock in Critically Ill Patients

Septic ShockSepsis3 more

Septic shock is a condition that is marked by severe infection causing hypotension requiring vasopressors to maintain adequate perfusion to vital organs. The Surviving Sepsis campaign, an international organization formed for the purpose of guiding the management of sepsis and septic shock, currently recommends norepinephrine as the first-choice vasopressor for septic shock. Phenylephrine, a vasopressor FDA-approved for use in septic shock, is recommended as an alternative vasopressor when septic shock is complicated by tachyarrhythmia to mitigate cardiac complications. This recommendation is based solely on experience with no scientific evidence to support this recommendation. The investigators will conduct an open-label randomized controlled trial (RCT) directly comparing phenylephrine and norepinephrine, two FDA-approved vasopressors that are both used in clinical practice for the management of septic shock. The investigators will perform this study with a population of patients that have septic shock to complete the following aims: Aim 1: Determine the incidence of tachyarrhythmias. Aim 2: Determine which vasopressor, phenylephrine or norepinephrine, is associated with a lower heart rate. Aim 3: Determine which vasopressor, phenylephrine or norepinephrine, is associated with a higher incidence of new tachyarrhythmias. Aim 4: Determine which vasopressor, phenylephrine or norepinephrine, is associated with less time in tachyarrhythmia. Aim 5: Determine which vasopressor, phenylephrine or norepinephrine, is associated with fewer complications, including cardiac complications. The investigators hypothesize that in this setting, phenylephrine will improve the management of septic shock when used as a "first choice" vasopressor by: Decreasing the mean heart rate Decreasing the incidence of new tachyarrhythmias Decreasing the amount of time spent in tachyarrhythmia for patients who develop new onset and recurrent tachyarrhythmias Decreasing the number of cardiac complications

EMS Prehospital Blood Culture Collection and Antibiotic Administration: A Two-Phase Pilot Project...

SepsisSepsis2 more

This study is designed to improve the outcomes for patients suffering from severe sepsis and septic shock (SS/SS) by decreasing the time from first medical contact to antibiotic administration. This is a stepwise study that aims to demonstrate the ability of paramedics to accurately obtain blood cultures prior to hospital arrival, administer a broad spectrum antibiotic and initiate IV fluid resuscitation in patients meeting predefined criteria for SS/SS.

Standard Vs Adjusted Dosing of Piperacillin/Tazobactam in Acute Renal Failure and Septic Shock

Septic ShockAcute Renal Failure

The objective of this study is to determine the feasibility of conducting a large scale randomized controlled trial comparing standard and renally adjusted dosage of antibiotics in the septic shock patients with acute renal dysfunction. We will use Piperacillin as the prototype antibiotic in our study.

Minimally-Invasive Cardiovascular Hemodynamic Optimization (MiCHO) Versus Early Goal-Directed Therapy...

Severe SepsisSeptic Shock

Early intervention in the treatment of septic shock, including early goal-directed therapy (EGDT) in the first 6 hours of disease presentation, has been shown to significantly decrease mortality. However, this approach requires invasive hemodynamic monitoring, thus limiting its widespread application in the emergency department setting. A minimally invasive protocol utilizing esophageal Doppler monitoring (EDM) may be of benefit and practical if it is shown to result in similar outcome as EGDT.

The Cooling And Surviving Septic Shock Study (CASS)

Septic Shock

Septic shock is in critically ill patients is a condition associated with a high rate of organ failure and hereto attributable mortality ~45-55% Hypothesis: Mild Induced Hypothermia reduces the mortality of critically ill patients with septic shock by reducing organ metabolism, counteracting on microcirculatory thrombosis, genetically downregulating tissue apoptosis and by reducing bacterial growth rate and toxin production.
