What this Trial Is About
Sepsis is a life-threatening condition caused by a dysregulated host response to infection, leading to organ dysfunction. Septic shock, a severe form of sepsis, is characterized by persistent hypotension and cellular/metabolic abnormalities despite adequate fluid resuscitation. It is associated with high mortality rates globally, necessitating timely diagnosis and treatment. Fluid resuscitation and vasopressor use are cornerstones of management, but they must be tailored to the individual to prevent complications such as fluid overload.
