Brief Summary
The ICU mortality rate of patients with septic shock was still high upto 54.1%.In first 6 hours of resuscitation, the goals of resuscitation in sepsis shock after adequate fluid resuscitation is MAP ≥65 mmHg. In refractory septic shock patient, prolong shock correlate with poor outcome due to multiple organ failure. Alternative vasopressor in septic shock with catecholamine resistance has been studied such as terlipressin, methylene blue
- Terlipressin (TP) mediate vasoconstriction via V1 receptors coupled to phospholipase C, and increases intracellular Ca2+ concentration
- Methylene blue (MB) directly inhibits nitric oxide synthase (NOS) by inhibit the enzyme guanylate cyclase (GC)

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
mortality rate
7 days
time to wean of vasopressor
through complete weaning off vasopressor, an average of 24 hours
ICU duration
through out off indication need ICU care, an average of 7 days
Secondary Outcomes (3)
hemodynamic parameter: Mean arterial pressure (mmHg)
every 30 min after start protocol up to 6 hr then every 1 hr up to 24 hours
hemodynamic parameter: lactate (mmol/l)
every 2 hr until 6 hr then every 4 hr until wean off vasopressor up to 24 hours
hemodynamic parameter: urine output (ml)
every 2 hr until wean off vasopressor up to 24 hours

A
NO INTERVENTIONstandard care septic shock according sepsis bundles
B
EXPERIMENTALafter defined refractory shock (adequate fluid resuscitation + add NE\>0.5 mcg/kg/min) add Methylene blue 1 mg/kg iv drip then 2 hr later drip 0.5 mg/kg/hr\*4 hr (intervention add on to standard care)
C
EXPERIMENTALafter defined refractory shock (adequate fluid resuscitation + add NE\>0.5 mcg/kg/min) add terlipressin 1 mg IV then repeated dose 20 min later if unstable BP (intervention add on to standard care)
Interventions
after defined refractory shock (need NE\>0.5 mcg/kg/min) add Methylene blue 1 mg/kg iv drip then 2 hr later drip 0.5 mg/kg/hr\*4 hr (intervention add on to standard care)
after defined refractory shock (need NE\>0.5 mcg/kg/min) add terlipressin 1 mg IV then repeated dose 20 min later if unstable BP (intervention add on to standard care)
