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 14 to 85 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: In this study, patients who had been admitted into the ICU of our hospital due to sepsis/spetic shock induced by intra-abdominal infections and who had stayed for more than 72 hours.The patients with sepsis caused by abdominal infection were divided into survival group and death group by ultrasound examination of gastrointestinal function, superior mesenteric artery blood flow, and renal artery resistance index. The cross-sectional area of gastric antrum, average time flow rate of superior mesenteric artery, colon diameter, colon peristalsis frequency, and renal artery resistance index of the two groups were compared to determine the progression of entero-renal syndrome as soon as possible.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients diagnosed with intra-abdominal infections
  • Patients with sepsis or septic shock

Who cannot join

  • Patients with open chest or abdominal injury
  • Patients with advanced tumor
  • Patients with uremia
  • Pregnant women

About this study

Official title: A Study on the Significance of Joint Evaluation of Gastrointestinal Ultrasound Results and Renal Artery Resistance Index for Assessing the Intestinal-renal Syndrome in Sepsis Patients

In this study, the patients with sepsis caused by abdominal infection were divided into survival group and death group by ultrasound examination of gastrointestinal function, superior mesenteric artery blood flow, and renal artery resistance index. The cross-sectional area of gastric antrum, average time flow rate of superior mesenteric artery, colon diameter, colon peristalsis frequency, and renal artery resistance index of the two groups were compared to determine the progression of entero-renal syndrome as soon as possible. To provide reliable objective basis for clinical decision-making, in order to improve the success rate of rescue.

Read the detailed description

Adult patients admitted to EICU of our hospital who met the diagnostic criteria for sepsis were included in the study. Patients with intra-abdominal sepsis were divided into survival group and death group for case control. Exclusion criteria: open chest and abdomen injury, advanced tumor, uremia, pregnancy. The primary endpoint was survival. Extraction time: ICU (0h), ICU (6h, that is, after fluid resuscitation), ICU (24h), ICU (48h, 08:00 a.m.), ICU (72h, 08:00 a.m.), ICU (120h, 08:00 a.m.); Monitoring indicators: antral cross-section area, colon diameter, colon peristalsis frequency, renal artery resistance index, CVP, ScvO2, IL6, blood lactic acid, blood creatinine, fluid intake, bladder pressure. The primary endpoint of the study was survival rate, and statistical analysis was performed to evaluate the progression of enterorenal syndrome, provide reliable objective basis for subsequent clinical decision-making, and improve the success rate of rescue.

What is being measured

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

  1. superior mesenteric artery resistance index

    With the patient in a supine position, ran the probe along the longitudinal section of the abdominal aorta to reveal the long axis of the superior mesenteric artery, and placed the probe 1.0 to 2.0 cm distal of where the superior mesenteric artery starts. The pulsed wave Doppler was used to show the spectrum of blood flow velocity, where the included angle between the bloodstream and the sound beam ranged from 25° to 45°. The waveform was recorded for three cardiac cycles, and the mean value calculated(Figure 1). The normal value of SMARI was between 0.69~0.91

    Measured: upon admission into the ICU, and, 24 and 72 hours afterwards

  2. renal artery resistance index

    With the patient in a supine position, ran the probe along the longitudinal section of the abdominal aorta to reveal the long axis of the superior mesenteric artery, and placed the probe 1.0 to 2.0 cm distal of where the superior mesenteric artery starts. The pulsed wave Doppler was used to show the spectrum of blood flow velocity, where the included angle between the bloodstream and the sound beam ranged from 25° to 45°. The waveform was recorded for three cardiac cycles, and the mean value calculated(Figure 1). The normal value of SMARI was between 0.69~0.91

    Measured: upon admission into the ICU, and, 24 and 72 hours afterwards

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Sepsis and Urinary Tract Infections, run by Zhangzhou Municipal Hospital 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 2 inclusion and 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Feb 2025. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact De Kang, Dr. (+8613960163029, cdkant@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

superior mesenteric artery resistance index (time frame: upon admission into the ICU, and, 24 and 72 hours afterwards). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 28 Feb 2025.
