No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The primary aim of the study would be to determine whether there is a difference in survival in the Intensive Care Unit between the group of patients with septic shock diagnosed with euthyroid sick syndrome who were treated with T3 hormone compared to the group of patients not treated with this hormone. Secondary objectives of the research would be:

Compare the level of thyroid hormones between the examined groups and

1. laboratory indicators of septic shock (C-reactive protein-CRP, procalcitonin, leukocytes, acid-base status, lactates)
2. APACHE II, SOFA and SAPS II patient assessment scales,
3. inflammatory prognostic systems (ratio of CRP and albumin-modified Glasgow prognostic score-mGPS, ratio of neutrophils and lymphocytes - NLR, ratio of platelets and lymphocytes - PLR, and ratio of leukocytes and CRP, prognostic index - PI)
4. hemodynamic stability of patients (MAP, systolic and diastolic pressure) in the periods of admission T0, T3, T6, T12, T24 and every 24 hours for 4 days,
5. effect of vasoactive drugs,
6. the need for mechanical ventilation categorized as yes or no, in case - number of respirator days,
7. length of stay in the Intensive Care Unit,
8. treatment outcome categorized as 28 day survival.

Conditions

  • Euthyroid Sick Syndromes
  • Septic Shock

Interventions

DRUG

triiodothyronine

Patients in septic shock who meet the diagnostic criteria for euthyroid sick syndrome will be divided into two groups; patients with low T3 levels and patients with low T3 and T4 levels. Both of these groups will be further randomly divided into patients receiving T3 hormone and patients receiving placebo.
