NCT ID NCT03953677
First seen Feb 04, 2026 · Last updated May 21, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This study tested whether a sedative called dexmedetomidine could help restore blood pressure response in adults with severe septic shock who were not responding to standard treatments. The trial was stopped early, but it aimed to see if the drug could improve how the body reacts to blood-pressure-raising medications. Only 32 people were enrolled, so results are limited.
