Ultrasound spleen stimulation for sepsis shock
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This trial tests if using focused ultrasound to stimulate the spleen can reduce inflammation in septic shock. It may help patients in the ICU who need strong blood pressure support.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether using ultrasound (heart imaging and blood-vessel scanning) helps doctors treat septic shock—a life-threatening blood infection—more effectively. The trial measures whether these imaging tools help guide fluid and medication decisions during resuscitation.
This trial tests a special blood-filtering method (adaptive blood purification) for people with septic shock caused by a severe infection. It aims to see if this treatment can help control inflammation and improve recovery in the ICU.
This study gathers expert opinions from critical care doctors and specialists around the world who use bedside ultrasound (a portable imaging tool) to diagnose and categorize septic shock (a life-threatening infection condition). The goal is to develop standardized approaches to identifying different types of septic shock using ultrasound.
