About this trial

A prospective, individual patient data meta-analysis (IPDMA) of four multicentre, open-label, randomised clinical trials of initial haemodynamic resuscitation in patients with septic shock.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Suspected or proven infection

Systolic blood pressure (SBP) <100 mm Hg OR mean arterial pressure (MAP) <65 mm Hg

Lactate ≥ 2.0 mmol/L

Requirement for vasopressors to meet perfusion targets

Disqualifiers

None

Trial population

All trials include adult patients requiring resuscitation for hypotension or hypoperfusion due to suspected sepsis as defined in the original studies. Participants may be enrolled in the emergency department, acute care ward or intensive care unit.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Vasopressors

    Other intervention

    A haemodynamic resuscitation strategy based upon the restriction of IV fluids (by either volume or rate of infusion) with initiation or change of rate of vasopressors if required to meet perfusion targets

  • Fluids

    Other intervention

    A strategy of resuscitation with intravenous fluids as the primary intervention to achieve perfusion targets with subsequent initiation or change of rate of vasopressors if required.
