ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying a special method called critical ultrasonography guided precise fluid management (CUGP) to see if it can help patients with sepsis or septic shock. Sepsis is a serious condition that happens when the body has an extreme response to an infection, which can lead to organ failure. The goal of the study is to find out if using CUGP can improve how fluids are managed in these patients, potentially leading to better health outcomes.
To participate in this trial, individuals need to be at least 18 years old and expected to stay in the intensive care unit (ICU) for at least 24 hours. They must also have a diagnosis of sepsis based on specific medical criteria. However, certain individuals are not eligible, including those who are pregnant or have certain serious health conditions like severe heart or lung problems. Participants can expect close monitoring and support while receiving the CUGP method, and their experience will help researchers understand its effectiveness in treating sepsis.
