Summary

The ARISE RCT is a multi-centre, randomised, controlled trial of EGDT compared to standard care in patients with severe sepsis presenting to the ED. The study will be conducted in multiple sites with 1600 patients enrolled into the study.

Hypothesis to be tested: EGDT, compared to standard Australasian resuscitation practice, reduces 90-day all-cause mortality in patients presenting to the ED with severe sepsis.
