First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated May 25, 2026 · Updated 25 times

Summary

This study looked at 30 intensive care patients with septic shock to see how a drug called norepinephrine affects both large and tiny blood vessels. Doctors already use a measure called ScvO2 to check large blood vessels, but they wanted to see if a new tool measuring tissue oxygen could give a better picture. The goal was to understand if focusing on tiny blood vessels could help reduce deaths.
