Summary

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if adding liquid nutrition therapy that is given by vein to standard-of-care treatment for sepsis can help to control sepsis symptoms better than giving standard-of-care treatment alone.

Researchers also want to compare the length of ICU and hospital stay and any side effects between these 2 treatments.

Conditions

  • Septic Shock

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Liquid Nutrition

Participants receive liquid nutrition by vein non-stop for up to 7 days.

PROCEDURE

Insulin Drip

Insulin drip by vein to keep serum glucose level between 140 and 180 mg/dL as per ICU protocol. The interventions required in the current standard management of patients with septic shock is based on the MD Anderson Evidence-Based Protocol (EBP) for management of Severe Sepsis initiated on admission to the ICU.
