Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

  1. Assess the impact of midodrine administration on weaning of IV vasopressors

  2. Assess the cost effectiveness of using midodrine in critically ill patients

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 4

Detailed Description

A prospective randomized controlled clinical trial on total 60 critically ill patients admitted to critical care medicine department with indication to IV vasopressor due to septic shock on admission or during intensive care unit stay and they are randomly assigned to either of 2 groups as follows

  1. Group 1(n=30):will receive IV vasopressor infusion only

  2. Group 2(n=30):will receive midodrine in addition to IV vasopressor infusion

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
No Intervention: IV vasopressor

Will receive IV vasopressor infusion only

Active Comparator: Midodrine

Will receive midodrine in addition to IV vasopressor infusion

Drug: Midodrine
The oral vasoactive drug (Midodrine) at a dose of 10-20 mg every 8 hours will be used in one arm .After the blood pressure goal is met for more than 24 hours without IV vasopressor ,midodrine will be discontinued prior to discharge

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Time of weaning of IV vasopressor in both groups [Starting from date of randomization till stop of IV vasopressor completely or date of death from any cause,whichever came first,assessed up to 30 days]

    measure duration needed to completely stop IV vasopressor in both groups and the impact of adding midodrine on that duration

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. ICU length of stay [Starting from date of randomization until ICU discharge or date of death from any cause,whichever came first,assessed up to 30 days]

    total duration of patient stay in ICU

  2. Time to ICU discharge after IV vasopressor discontinuation [Starting from discontinuation of IV vasopressor until time to ICU discharge or date of death from any cause ,whichever came first,assessed up to 30 days]

    measure duration from IV vasopressor stop till ICU discharge or death

  3. Time to ICU discharge after midodrine initiation [Starting from midodrine initiation until ICU discharge or date of death from any cause,whichever came first,assessed up to 30 days]

    measure duration from midodrine start till ICU discharge or death

  4. Mortality [Up to 30 days]

    measure if patient die or discharge from the ICU

Eligibility Criteria

Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study:
18 Years to 80 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:
All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
No
Inclusion Criteria:
  1. Adult patients (18-80)years

  2. Hypotensive (systolic blood pressure<90mm Hg)and require IV vasopressor for more than 24 hours

  3. Require IV vasopressor at rate < 8mcg/min and unable to wean for >24 hours

Exclusion Criteria:
  1. Severe organic heart disease (ejection fraction <30 percent due to higher risk of arrythmia)

  2. Bradycardia (HR<50 b/m)due to higher likelihood of symptomatic bradycardia

  3. Chronic kidney disease (serum creatinine >2mg/dl) as midodrine and its active metabolites are almost completely execreated in urine

  4. Thyrotoxicosis

  5. Known allergy to midodrine
