NCT02750163

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of Acetaminophen on the main parameters of microcirculation, on the plasmatic levels of free hemoglobin/oxidative stress markers and on the expression of PD1/Pd-L1, in pyrexial septic patient.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Perfused Vessel Density (PVD)

    The perfused vessel density (PVD), unit of measure mm/mm2, is detected in vivo by Incident Dark Field Imaging at sublingual microcirculation. It represents the quantity of well perfused vessels at microcirculatory level.

    30 minutes

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • StO2 upload

    30 minutes

  • Microcirculatory flow index (MFI)

    30 minutes

Interventions

Paracetamol will be given to febrile septic patients

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

50 patients with sepsis or septic shock

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with sepsis, severe sepsis and septic shock with high body temperature that need administration of Paracetamol and which have previously monitored blood pressure and have a central venous catheter in place.

You may not qualify if:

  • age \< 18 years
  • pregnancy
  • hemodialysis
  • hemolysis of the blood sample
  • use of Paracetamol in the previous 12 hours
  • conditions that do not allow the possibility of getting a monitoring of sublingual microcirculation (maxillofacial trauma, serious inability to jaw, copious blood loss or secretions from the mouth)
