Trial summary

Septic shock is common in intensive care and its mortality remains high. While new treatments have not improved survival, optimization of known and widely used techniques has allowed reduction in mortality. Thus improving care given to patients starts with making better use of existing resuscitation techniques. Read more about this study

About this study

Septic shock is common in intensive care and its mortality remains high. While new treatments have not improved survival, optimization of known and widely used techniques has allowed reduction in mortality. Thus improving care given to patients starts with making better use of existing resuscitation techniques. Among these practices, mechanical ventilation is widespread in the management of patients with septic shock. In large studies published in recent years in Europe and North America, 40 to 85% of patients receive invasive mechanical ventilation. It therefore appears that a significant proportion of patients are never intubated during treatment and management of their septic shock. There is no specific recommendation from critical care societies concerning mechanical ventilation in the treatment of septic shock. Apart from indisputable situations such as impaired consciousness or acute respiratoire distress, the decision whether to ventilate mechanically or not is left to the discretion of the physician.

The aim of this study is to analyze intubation practice in septic shock patients and its impact on 28-day survival.

This multicentric and observational study will be conducted in 30 French ICUs.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Septic Shock, run by University Hospital, Angers.

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 5 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 18 Apr 2018. 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. 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?

death (time frame: 28 days after ICU admission). 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 NCT02780466, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 18 Apr 2018.
