Trial summary

Fluid resuscitation remains the foundation for septic treatment.The evaluation of fluid responsiveness has significance in volume resuscitation for septic shock patients. As the sedative which is commonly used in ICU, Midazolam is supposed to change fluid responsiveness for the pharmacological effect of venodilation. Read more about this study

About this study

Fluid resuscitation remains the foundation for septic treatment.The evaluation of fluid responsiveness has significance in volume resuscitation for septic shock patients. As the sedative which is commonly used in ICU, Midazolam is supposed to change fluid responsiveness for the pharmacological effect of venodilation. However, the hypothesis has not been certified clinically. In this research, the investigators aim to test the hypothesis that Midazolam can increase fluid responsiveness(using passive leg raising test) in septic shock patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing sedatives(Midazolam and Propofol) in people with Septic Shock, run by Southeast University, China at 1 site in China.

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 0 inclusion and 6 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Jan 2014. 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 China. 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

percentage of participants with more than 10% increase of cardiac index by passive leg raising after sedation (time frame: Baseline,after sedation). 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 31 Jan 2014.
