Overview

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the influence of extracellular water on volume status in adult sepsis patients presenting with hemodynamic instability. The main question it aims to answer is:

• Can measurement of extracellular water (MoistureMeterD, Delfin Technologies Ltd, Kuopio, Finland) contribute to the description of hemodynamic instability in adult sepsis patients.

Patients with sepsis admitted to intensive care will receive standard care with the addition of measurement of extracellular water.

Description

Adult patients with sepsis admitted to any of our ICUs will be recruited. During the first three days after inclusion blood samples and extended non-invasive monitoring, including monitoring of the microcirculation (CytoCam) and measurement of extracellular water (dielectronic constant), will be added to routine care and monitoring.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adults with sepsis.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Pregnancy, other than sepsis known cause of shock.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
