Can a protein fluid help septic shock patients? small study tests the waters
NCT ID NCT05208242
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether giving a concentrated protein fluid called albumin, along with standard fluids, is possible in patients with septic shock (a life-threatening infection causing very low blood pressure). 47 adults took part to see if doctors could recruit enough patients for a future larger trial. The main goal was to check feasibility, not to prove if albumin works better.
