Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 65 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Enrolment of eligible patients will occur within 8 h of meeting the criteria for septic shock. All patients will be randomized using the computer-generated software of randomization and sealed closed envelopes to allocate them to one of two groups (30 patients each). Routine measurements and investigations will be taken at admission to intensive care unit; history, vital signs, routine laboratory investigation.

Who may be able to join

  • ASA class I and II
  • Age 18-65 years old of both genders.
  • Fulfilment criteria of sepsis as defined according to the standard Surviving Sepsis Campaign criteria using the Sequential (sepsis-related) Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score (SOFA score ≥ 2 indicated organ dysfunction).
  • Patients within 8 h of meeting the criteria for septic shock.

Who cannot join

  • Lack of consent
  • Age below 18 and above 65 years old.
  • acute coronary syndrome
  • major cardiac dysrhythmia,
  • valvular or congenital heart disease
  • Massive bilateral pleural effusion
Show all 13Show fewer
  • Severe anaemia
  • End-stage kidney disease (ESKD) patients with Creatinine clearance (CrCl) <50ml/min.
  • Child B and Child C hepatic patients
  • impaired systolic function according to the ejection fraction (EF) (EF < 40% indicated impaired systolic function)
  • Severe ARDS (acute respiratory distress syndrome).

About this study

Official title: Comparing the Non Invasive Cardiometry With Ultrasound Guided Inferior Vena Cava Collapsibility for Evaluation of Fluid Responsiveness in Septic Patient; Randomized Clinical Trials

The study aims to evaluate the accuracy of fluid responsiveness assessment with non-invasive cardiometry compared to ultrasound guided inferior vena cava (IVC) collapsibility for management of critically ill septic patients with hemodynamic instability.

Read the detailed description

Prospective Randomized observational comparative single blinded study will be conducted at intensive care unit at Benha University Hospitals after obtaining approval of the ethical committee and informed written consent from first degree relatives will be issued. The blindness will be performed to the patients.

The study will be conducted according to CONSORT 2010 statement. Enrolment of eligible patients will occur within 8 h of meeting the criteria for septic shock. All patients will be randomized using the computer-generated software of randomization and sealed closed envelopes to allocate them to one of two groups (30 patients each). Routine measurements and investigations will be taken at admission to intensive care unit; history, vital signs, routine laboratory investigation.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT05310942
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
AThe fluid management of patients in this group will be assessed by IVC collapsibility index (IVC CI) calculated by ultrasound through maximum IVC diameter - minimum IVC diameter divided by maximum diameter then multiplied by 100. If it is less than 50% means that the patient is volume non- depleted while if it is more than 50% means the reverse.
BAll patients in this group with sepsis will be evaluated by the electrical cardiometry monitor.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Fluid responsiveness

    The study primary outcome will be the cardiac index determined by the non-invasive cardiometry in correlation with ultrasound guided IVC collapsibility index to determine which is more effective in prediction of fluid responsiveness.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. total infused fluid from ICU arrival till the goal is achieved

    Measured: 2 years

  2. total dose of vasopressor and inotrope taken during ICU stay period

    Measured: 2 years

  3. time to weaning of vasopressors and inotropes

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Septic Shock, run by Benha University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Apr 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Fluid responsiveness (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Apr 2022.
