Minimally-Invasive Cardiovascular Hemodynamic Optimization (MiCHO) Versus Early Goal-Directed Therapy (EGDT) in the Management of Septic Shock

Phase 4
Terminated
Conditions
Septic Shock
Severe Sepsis
Interventions
Device: Esophageal Doppler monitoring - CardioQ, Deltex Inc
Device: Central line with CVP and continuous ScvO2 monitoring
Registration Number
NCT00535821
Lead Sponsor
Loma Linda University
Brief Summary

Early intervention in the treatment of septic shock, including early goal-directed therapy (EGDT) in the first 6 hours of disease presentation, has been shown to significantly decrease mortality. However, this approach requires invasive hemodynamic monitoring, thus limiting its widespread application in the emergency department setting. A minimally invasive protocol utilizing esophageal Doppler monitoring (EDM) may be of benefit and practical if it is shown to result in similar outcome as EGDT.
