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 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with septic shock were assessed for inclusion, which required that patients be older than 18 years with confirmed or presumed infection, met two or more criteria for systemic inflammatory response syndrome [16], and evidence of refractory hypotension or a serum lactate level above 4 mmol per liter.
  • Refractory hypotension was defined as a systolic blood pressure lower than 90 mm Hg, or a mean arterial pressure of less than 65 mm Hg , after an intravenous fluid challenge of 20 ml or more per kilogram of body weight.
  • Patients had to be enrolled in the study within 2 hours after the earliest detection of septic shock and within 12 hours after arrival ICU.

Who cannot join

  • The patients were excluded if they meet any one of follows: an age of less than 18 years, pregnancy, an acute cerebral vascular event (Glasgow coma score < 5), acute myocardial infarction or acute coronary syndrome, massive pulmonary embolism, status asthmaticus, a primary diagnosed cardiac dysrhythmias, contraindication to central venous catheterization, active gastrointestinal hemorrhage, massive intra abdominal infective focus without drainage, severe bronchopleural fistula, seizure, during chemotherapy or immunosuppressive therapy, or end stage of the diseases.

About this study

The purpose of this study is to explore and assess possible outcome benefits of lactate clearance>30% vs ScvO2 ≥70% in 6 hours as the protocol goal that evaluated adequacy of during early resuscitation of septic shock through a single-center randomized controlled study. The investigators anticipate to collect 300-400 qualified patients with septic shock who were selected from critically ill patients admitted to the Department of Critical Care Medicine. The participants can be randomized divided into lactate clearance group and SCVO2 group. The investigators compared the treatment and the relevant parameters changed after different target. 28-day mortality, ICU and hospital lengths of stay, ventilator-free days, and new emerged organ failure were collected and compared. 28-day survival curves were drew between these two group. And the adverse events of the treatment have also been compared. Through this study, the investigators want to answer that whether lactate clearance-oriented therapy can reduce the mortality in patients with septic shock, compared with ScvO2-oriented protocolised therapy.

What participants receive

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

    First, either crystalloid or colloid could be given to achieve a CVP of 8 to 12 mm Hg. Second, if the mean arterial pressure (MAP) was less than 65 mm Hg, norepinephrine was administrated to maintain MAP ≥65 mm Hg. If the mean arterial pressure was higher than 90 mm Hg, vasodilators were given until it was 90 mm Hg or below. Finally, SCVO2 or lactate clearance will be checked to determine red blood cells transfused or not to achieve a haematocrit of at least 30%. If ScvO2 or lactate clearance remains unmet target value, dobutamine could be used in the treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. 60-day mortality

    Measured: 60 days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. ventilator-free days

    Measured: 60 days

  2. organs dysfunction/failure

    New onset organs dysfunction/failure were defined with reference to internationally accepted criteria as follows. (1) In accordance with the RIFLE criteria, acute kidney injure (AKI) defined as the sudden changes (48 hours) of renal function caused by renal structural or function damaged, showing absolute increase in serum creatinine ≥0.3 mg / dl (≥26.4umol / l), or an increase ≥50% (1.5 times the baseline value), or urine output <0.5 ml/kg/h for over 6 hours. (2) Acute liver injury is defined as ALT increased more than 1 times. (3) Acute myocardial injury is defined as emerging symptoms of myocardial ischemia. ECG changes suggested myocardial ischemia (ST segment elevation or depression, or pathologic Q waves), and biochemical markers of myocardial necrosis was typical increased (troponin and creatine kinase). (4) Based on the Berlin definition, acute lung injury is defined as oxygenation index <300mmHg with PEEP ≥5 cmH2O.

    Measured: 60 days

  3. the adverse events of the treatment

    Acute pulmonary edema, Acute myocardial infarction, Arrhythmia, Cardiac Arrest, Pneumothorax caused by the puncture, RBC allergy, Catheter-related infections

    Measured: 60 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Resuscitation in people with Septic Shock, run by Peking Union Medical College Hospital.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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 3 May 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

60-day mortality (time frame: 60 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02566460, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 3 May 2016.
