Norepinephrine (NE) is recommended as first choice vasoactive agent for the treatment of septic shock. However, the dynamic effects of NE on macro- and microcirculation and perfusion parameters has not been described in detail in the context of septic shock, precluding rational individualized titration of NE and fluids, as recommended recently. In the present prospective observational multicenter study in adult septic shock patients, we intend to explore the effects of NE on preload dependency and tissue perfusion by evaluating the correlation and potential discrepancies between macro- and microcirculation both during titration of NE and after fluid resuscitation. The conclusions drawn from our study will contribute to the physiological knowledge necessary for establishing individualized evidence-based bedside management of hemodynamics in the setting of septic shock.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': '45 adult patients with septic shock according to inclusion criteria admitted to ICUs at Hvidovre and Bispebjerg Hospital, respectively.', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Suspected or documented infection\n* Need for vasopressors to maintain mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) ≥65 mmHg\n* Serum lactate levels \\>2 mmol/L\n* Norepinephrine infusion of \\> 0.2 mcg/kg/min\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Absolute contraindication for esophageal doppler or urinary catheter insertion as noted in the patients' charts.\n* Severe valvular pathology and cardiac arrhythmias resulting in severe hemodynamic instability.\n* Lithium treatment\n* Treatment with other vasopressor or inotropic drugs."}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT05225402', 'briefTitle': 'Hemodynamic Measurements of Macrocirculatory and Perfusion Parameters in ICU', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Copenhagen University Hospital, Hvidovre'}, 'officialTitle': 'Effects of Norepinephrine on Hemodynamic Measurements of Macrocirculatory and Perfusion Parameters in ICU Patients with Septic Shock', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'HW-NA-Fluid-Measurements'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'label': 'Septic Shock', 'description': 'Adult patients with septic shock, admitted to ICUs at Hvidovre and Bispebjerg Hospital, respectively.
