NCT01473498

Brief Summary

Sepsis is the most severe complication of infections. Sepsis-associated Acute kidney injury (AKI) is commonly encountered in critically ill patients and independently predicts poor outcome. Unfortunately, no drug or management strategy was able to reduce incidence of AKI. To adapt the level of mean arterial pressure according to local renal hemodynamic evaluated by renal Doppler could lead to a better renal perfusion, and then less AKI.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

    during hospitalization

  • All cause mortality

    at 28 days

Study Arms (2)

Test group

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will be treated with fluid and norepinephrine to achieve and maintain a mean arterial pressure of 65 mm Hg. Then they will be randomized in two groups. In the first group (study group, n=30), mean arterial pressure will be increased to 85 mm Hg for 72 hours by increasing the dose of norepinephrine in patients (A maximum dose of 1.2 mcg / kg / min is not exceeded). Key details, e.g., for drugs include dosage form, dosage, frequency and duration.

Other: Haemodynamic management

Control group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients will be treated with fluid and norepinephrine to achieve and maintain a mean arterial pressure of 65 mm Hg. Then they will be randomized in two groups. In this group (control group, n=30), mean arterial pressure will be maintained at 65 mm Hg.

Other: Haemodynamic management

Interventions

Patients will be treated with fluid and norepinephrine to achieve and maintain a mean arterial pressure of 65 mm Hg. Then they will be randomized in two groups. In the first group (study group, n=30), mean arterial pressure will be increased to 85 mm Hg for 72 hours by increasing the dose of norepinephrine in patients.
