Summary

Septic shock is a leading cause of death worldwide despite intensive research efforts. Only a few interventions have been proven to be effective in improving patient-centered outcomes. Recent clinical trials have reported the safety and efficacy of remote ischemic postconditioning (RIPOST) in a variety of pathologies, including myocardial infarction, cardiac surgery, and stroke. While RIPOST was mainly tested in pathologies with low mortality rates, several follow-up studies of large randomized clinical trials in acute myocardial infarction and in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery have reported significant decreases (\> 50%) in long-term mortality. Experimental studies and proof-of-concept clinical trials have also suggested the potential benefits of RIPOST on mortality in sepsis and septic shock. The present protocol aims to test whether this non-invasive, widely available, inexpensive, and innovative intervention can improve survival in septic shock.

Conditions

  • Adult Patients With Septic Shock Admitted in Intensive Care Unit

Interventions

OTHER

Remote ischemic conditioning

A brachial cuff is positioned around one arm of the patient. Remote ischemic conditioning consists of alternating inflations and deflations of the brachial cuff. Four cycles of ischemic conditioning (5-min brachial cuff inflation at 200 mmHg followed by 5-min cuff deflation) are started as soon as possible after inclusion. The intervention is repeated 12 and 24 hours after inclusion.

No intervention
