Methods

Randomized controlled research. Patients were randomly allocated to two groups. In the critical care ultrasound oriented shock management group (CUSS group), treatment was oriented by the findings of critical care ultrasound in each shock phase, while in the control group the decisions about the monitoring and management were made by the clinical team. The goal of treatments in both groups were decreasing lactate by 20% or more per 2 hours for the Optimization phase in shock management, and no increase lactate level when removing the fluid in de-escalation phase. The primary outcome measure were hospital mortality and 28-day mortality, the secondary outcome measure were the length of ventilation and the length of ICU stay.

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?

28-day mortality (time frame: through study completion,an average of 28 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 NCT03093987, which also lists 7 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 1 Nov 2017.
