Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Assess the effect of fluids and norepinephrine for mean arterial pressure titration to patients' usual level on the microcirculation of initial resuscitated hypertensive septic shock patients.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 4

Detailed Description

Microcirculatory dysfunction plays an important role in the development of organ failure in patients with septic shock. Numerous studies focus on the effect of mean arterial pressure (MAP) titration on microcirculation, however, by what strategy is better for microcirculation in septic shock patients with previous hypertension is still a matter of debate. The goal of this study was to assess the effect of different strategies for MAP titration to individualized level on microcirculation in hypertensive septic shock patients.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Resp-FL

Patients received 500 ml crystalloid for fluid challenge within 20 minutes, then a PLR test was performed to predict fluid responsiveness. If the patient was fluid responsive, more 500 ml crystalloids were given until fluid nonresponsive. If the MAP still not achieved the target value, NE was increased to achieve the target one. The target MAP was maintain MAP within 10% of the reference value.

    Exclusion Criteria:
    1. had severe untreated or uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure more than 180 mm Hg or/and diastolic blood pressure more than 110 mm Hg);

    2. were younger than 18 years old or pregnant;

    3. were unable to acquire the usual level or resting level of blood pressure;

    4. refused to participate the trial.
