About this trial

Pediatric population who suffered from sepsis due to perforated viscus will receive fluid resuscitation guided by either central venous pressure or guided by IVC collapsibility index.

The method of guidance of fluid therapy will be applied pre, intra, and postoperatively.

Primary outcome will be the length of hospital stays, while the secondary outcomes will be the incidence of complications and the length of PICU stays

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Pediatric patients aged 1 to 5 years presented with septic shock due to perforated viscus according to definition of the American College of Critical Care Medicine and International Pediatric Sepsis Consensus.

Disqualifiers

Refusal of the parents to participate in the study

Obesity

Congenital heart diseases

Severe arrythmias

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Central venous catheter

    Procedure/Surgery

    Central venous catheter will be introduced to measure central venous pressure

  • IVC collapsibility index

    Diagnostic test

    In supine position, IVC will be assessed in the anteroposterior plane in the subxiphoid view using two-dimensional mode till an optimal view of IVC entering the right atrium will be obtained. Then, measurement of its collapsibility will be done.

Treatment groups

50 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groups
Group A: Group I (CVP)Experimental treatment 1 intervention
Group B: Group II (IVC)Experimental treatment 2 interventions
