No results posted yet for this study

Summary

A great interest exists regarding substances with an immunomodulatory effect for sepsis patients. Recent data have shown that intravenous vitamin C, together with corticosteroids and thiamine, could prevent progressive organ dysfunction and reduce vasopressor use in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock. Its effect on mortality, on the other hand, is yet to be demonstrated. The Vitamins study aims to conclusively determine, through its prospective, multicentre and double-blinded design including 1090 patients, wether Vitamin C, Thiamine and Hydrocortisone in combination can reduce mortality in patients with septic shock.
