About this study

Official title: A Multicenter,Prospective,Randomized,Controlled,Double Blind Study in China to Evaluate the Effect of Terlipressin in Patients With Septic Shock

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of terlipressin for treating septic shock.

Read the detailed description

Septic shock is the most common cause of death in intensive care units and has a mortality rate of 40 to 60%.Vasopressin is commonly used as an adjunct to catecholamines to support blood pressure in refractory septic shock.Recently small sample clinical study suggest that Terlipressin,a vasopressin analogues, was effective in reversing sepsis-induced arterial hypotension and in reducing norepinephrine requirements.But its effect on mortality is unknown.Invesgators hypothesized that Terlipressin as compared with norepinephrine would decrease mortality among patients with septic shock.

What participants receive

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

  • TerlipressinDrug

    continuous infusion of terlipressin (0.66ug/min-2.66ug/min) ,dosage modified acorrding to blood pressure

  • NorepinephrineDrug

    continuous infusion with dose 7.5ug/min-30ug/min,modified acorrding to blood pressure

What is being measured

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

  1. 28-day Mortality

    The prospectively defined primary end point was death from any cause and was assessed 28 days after the start of the infusion

    Measured: 28-days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. SOFA score

    SOFA score was measured on day0-7 after the start of the infusion in both groups

    Measured: 7 days

  2. days alive and free of vasopressor

    Days of vasopressor were recorded after the start of the infusion in both groups.

    Measured: during the first 28 days after the start of the infusion

  3. 90-day mortality

    Measured: 90 days after the start of the infusion
