NCT02609152 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: PHASE3 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the administration of a short acting beta-blocker in terms of effective increase in stroke volume (at least 15%) after 4 hours initiation of therapy in septic shock in patients with a hyperkinetic profile after 12-24 hours of care.

This research seeks to demonstrate that the proportion of patients with an increase in the systolic ejection superior or equal to 15% (relative to baseline) at four hours is different between the two arms of the study: (1) an experimental arm where patients receive an esmolol infusion according to a predetermined procedure and (2) a control arm where patients receive a saline infusion according to a predetermined procedure.

Conditions

  • Shock, Septic

Interventions

DRUG

Continuous perfusion of esmolol

In the experimental arm of the study, a continuous perfusion of esmolol will be performed. This infusion starts at 5 ml / h with an increase of 5 ml / hr every 10 minutes to obtain a 15% decrease in heart rate. The infusion will be reduced by 5 ml / h every 5 minutes if the cardiac rate is less than 90 beats per minute and stopped if it is less than 70 beats per minute. At H4, the doctor in charge is free to gradually continue or stop the infusion.

DRUG

Continuous perfusion of saline

In the control arm of the study, a continuous infusion of normal saline will be performed. This infusion starts at 5 ml / h with an increase of 5 ml / hr every 10 minutes to obtain a 15% decrease in heart rate. The infusion will be reduced by 5 ml / h every 5 minutes if the cardiac rate is less than 90 beats per minute and stopped if it is less than 70 beats per minute. A H4, the doctor in charge is free to gradually continue or stop the infusion.
