About this study

300 consecutive patients with cirrhosis of any aetiology admitted with features of sepsis and sepsis induced hypotension to the intensive care unit, the emergency department and the step down units of Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences, New Delhi, who fulfil the inclusion criteria.

This study will be a single centre prospective randomized comparative trial. Patients will be randomized into two groups. Group A will receive crystalloid, 0.9% sodium chloride solution (total of 30ml/kg over 30 minutes) and Group B will receive colloid, 5% albumin (250 ml over 15 minutes).

Being tested
5% albumin Infusion, 0.9% sodium chloride solution

What participants receive

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 5% albumin Infusion and 0.9% sodium chloride solution in people with Cirrhosis With Septic Shock, run by Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences, India at 1 site in India.

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 1 inclusion and 12 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 30 Dec 2015. 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 India. 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?

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?

Total number of patients with MAP (Mean Arterial Pressure) ≥ 65 (time frame: 3 hours). 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 30 Dec 2015.
