Summary

This study will include patients requiring high dose of norepinephrine (NA) to maintain blood pressure after fluid resuscitation. The patients will be randomized into two groups, the study protocol is early combined application of methylene blue. The primary outcome is Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score 72 hours after admission. Second outcome includes duration of shock, length of intensive care unit (ICU) hospitalization and so on. To explore the underlying mechanism, the changes of sublingual microcirculation before and after vasopressor combination will be collected, also is the global longitudinal strain of left ventricle.

Conditions

  • Septic Shock

Interventions

DRUG

Methylene Blue

Once the patient meets inclusion criterial, the interventional group will receive 2mg/kg methylene blue infusion within 20min, followed by 0.5mg/kg/h for 4 hours.
