New study reveals hidden blood flow dynamics when reducing shock medications

NCT ID NCT07653659

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study observes 30 adults with distributive shock who are on a ventilator and receiving norepinephrine to maintain blood pressure. Researchers measure critical closing pressure—the pressure at which small blood vessels collapse—before and 30 minutes after doctors reduce the norepinephrine dose. The goal is to understand how these changes affect tissue perfusion and guide safer medication management in intensive care.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors better understand how to safely reduce blood pressure medications in shock patients, potentially improving recovery.
What could go wrong
This is a small observational study with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. It does not test a new treatment, only measures existing care.

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Adult distributive shock patients aged ≥18 years; 2. Receiving norepinephrine infusion with MAP in the 75-85 mmHg range; 3. PiCCO catheter in situ; 4. Under mechanical ventilation; 5. Clinically indicated norepinephrine dose reduction per attending physician judgment. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Significant cardiac arrhythmia affecting CO measurement reliability; 2. Contraindication to airway plateau pressure maneuver; 3. Active titration of other vasoactive agents within 30 minutes prior to measurement; 4. Hemodynamic instability making it impossible to reduce norepinephrine dose.
