View clinical trials related to Shock.
Filter by:Shock is one of the most common conditions in the intensive care unit (ICU) affecting one-third of critically ill patients. It reduces oxygen and nutrition's perfusion to the solid organs and is closely associated with increased mortality. Most literature has described how hemodynamic monitoring could provide an effective way to identify underlying pathophysiological processes and guide appropriate therapy in shock patients.
Patients in the Intensive Cardiovascular Care Unit (ICCU) often present with cardiovascular disease (CVD) issues accompanied by various non-cardiovascular conditions. However, a widely applicable scoring system to predict patient outcomes in the ICCU is lacking. Therefore, developing and validating scores for predicting ICCU patient outcomes are warranted. The aims of the IndONEsia ICCU (One ICCU) registry include developing an epidemiological registry of ICCU patients and establishing a multicentre research network to analyse patient outcomes.This nationwide multicenter cohort will capture data from patients receiving cardiovascular critical care treatment in 10 Indonesian hospitals with ICCU facilities. Recorded data will encompass demographic characteristics, physical examination findings at hospital and ICCU admission, diagnoses at ICCU admission, therapy, intervention, complications on days 3 and 5 of in-ICCU care, in-hospital outcomes, and 30-day outcomes. The One ICCU is a large, prospective registry describing the care process and advancing clinical knowledge in ICCU patients. It will serve as an investigational platform for predicting the mortality of ICCU patients.
This prospective observational cohort study included all septic shock patients with two groups of ESS and anylised in 28-day outcome, clinical biochemical parameters and hemodynamic monitoring.
Objectives: investigators aim to study the effect of addition of vitamin C as a part of treatment in septic shock patients on: Hemodynamics, Inflammation status and ICU outcome. Subjects and methods: A prospective interventional randomized cohort study, was conducted on 150 consecutive patients who were admitted to the ICU with septic shock based on SIRS, SOFA and APACHE II. Treatment group (n=75) had given ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) parenterally 6gm daily and control group (n=75). Measuring the level of Vitamin C in all study population (normal range 50-70 μM/L) before and after period of 4 days.
This study sought to evaluate the association of right ventricular systolic dysfunction and 28-day in-hospital mortality in patients with sepsis and septic shock. Prospective cohort study of adult patients admitted at Burapha university hospital from October 1, 2022 through June 30, 2023 for sepsis and septic shock, who had an echocardiogram within 72 hours after admission for evaluating right ventricular systolic function. Right ventricular systolic dysfunction was defned by the American Society of Echocardiography criteria. Outcomes included 28-day in-hospital mortality, maximal blood lactate, length of intensive care unit(ICU) stay and duration of mechanical ventilation.
Sleep is an important activity and snoring is the most often reported complaint. Snoring is also very common in the general population. Moreover, snoring can negatively impact bed companions' quality of sleep, daytime sleepiness, strain of relationships, social embarrassment and disturb mental health that in the end will reduce quality of life. Anatomical risk factors are believed to be one of major contributors to upper airway constriction during sleep. Treatment for this condition include lifestyle modifications (such as quitting alcohol or losing weight), positional therapy, mandibular advancement devices, upper airway surgery, and nasal continuous positive airway pressure. Myofunctional therapy (MT) as an adjunctive or alternative therapy can lower Apnea-Hypopnea Index in obstructive sleep apnea patients with pharyngeal dilator muscle collapse. Although these may be beneficial, the impact of MT on retropalatal narrowing as one of the snoring causes needs to be better established. This study was done to find out the impact of MT in people with snoring who have a collapsed pharynx that is located by a Flexible nasolaryngoscopy.
Sepsis is defined as life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Some researchers proposed that the dysregulated response or organ dysfunction can be lessened by reducing the stress response, which further reduce complication and mortality rates of sepsis. Dexmedetomidine is alpha adrenergic receptor agonist, presenting sympatholytic action in certain parts of the brain with anxiolytic, sedative, and pain killing effects. In the experiments of sepsis animal model, dexmedetomidine have been proved to improve serum lactate clearance and the microcirculation. Dexmedetomidine may inhibit inflammation, as it enhances the activity of the immune system while reducing its systemic reaction and lowering cytokine concentrations. There are also evidences in clinical trials with definite safety that dexmedetomidine reduced inflammation, reduced vasopressor requirements and improved organ function. The beta antagonist esmolol has been proposed as a therapy to lower heart rate, thereby improving diastolic filling time, and improving cardiac output, resulting in a reduction in vasopressor support. A recent meta-analysis of 8 randomized studies using esmolol suggested that the 32% risk ratio decreased 28-day mortality, and a meta-analysis of 7 studies using esmolol in patients with sepsis and septic shock was associated with 32% lower 28-day mortality. However, the effect of anti-stress drugs on cerebral hemodynamics is unknown. In this study, investigators are going to apply the technique of transcranial Doppler to assess the reaction of cerebral blood flow in anti-stress group and control group.
Introduction: Septic shock leads to high morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients. Several lower-case scientific studies have supported the synergistic positive effect of vitamin C, thiamine, and hydrocortisone on sepsis-induced organ dysfunction. Aim: Our aim was to investigate the effect of vitamin complex on organ failure, laboratory parameters, respiratory and antibiotic treatment, intensive care time, and mortality in septic shock patients. Material and methods: In our retrospective and prospective analysis, we collected parameters from 43 (23 vitamin-treated, 20 control) septic shock patients. Patients treated with vitamin, they received vitamin C (4x1500 mg), thiamine (2x200 mg) for three days (2). In other respects, and for hydrocortisone (200 mg / 24h), both groups of patients received treatment according to the European Sepsis Recommendation. SPSS (V-21) data were used for data collection, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Wilcoxon, Mann-Whitney U tests were used for statistical analysis. Ethical license: 7849-PTE 2019.
