Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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

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.

Summary

This study tests whether a non-invasive arm cuff procedure, called remote ischemic postconditioning, can reduce deaths in adults with septic shock. The cuff is inflated and deflated in cycles to briefly restrict blood flow, which may trigger protective effects. 720 ICU patients will be randomly assigned to receive the procedure or standard care, and survival at 90 days will be compared.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
remote ischemic conditioning (arm cuff inflation/deflation cycles)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, cheap, non-invasive way to reduce deaths from septic shock.
What could go wrong
This is a large trial but still early for this specific condition. Previous benefits seen in other diseases may not apply to septic shock, and the intervention may have no effect on survival.
