Brief Summary:
In this clinical trial the effect of early administration of Vitamin C is investigated in patients admitted at the emergency department with sepsis or septic shock
When a patient has sepsis hisher body is causing damage to its own tissues and organs as result of an infection This can lead to septic shock The patient has a low blood pressure hisher organs stop working and the patient may even die
The aim of this trial is to investigate the efficiency of Vitamin C in sepsis and septic shock Vitamin C is a vitamin present in various foods and has been approved as dietary supplement by the Belgian authorities Over the years it has been proven that Vitamin C is very safe In addition several studies have shown that Vitamin C can also have a protective effect It can reduce organ damage and increase survival rates Although several studies suggest that Vitamin C can help fight sepsis it is not yet used in practice This Belgian trial in which several hospitals participate hopes to provide a clear answer to the question Should Vitamin C be administered to patients admitted in an emergency department with sepsis or septic shock
