Personalized fluids for emergency sepsis care
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This trial tests a personalized approach to giving IV fluids to patients with sepsis in the emergency department. It uses a device to monitor your heart and blood flow to help doctors decide how much fluid you need, which may improve recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older and being treated in the emergency department at Intermountain Medical Center.
- You have suspected sepsis (a severe infection in your body).
- You have low blood pressure or a high lactate level (a marker of severe infection) at the time you join.
- You have not already received a large amount of IV fluids, and you are not currently having certain conditions like a heart attack, stroke, or bleeding.
- You are not pregnant, not in prison, and have been in the emergency department for less than 6 hours.

This study tests a personalized approach to giving fluids to patients with sepsis, a serious infection that can cause low blood pressure. The goal is to see if individualized fluid resuscitation improves outcomes compared to standard care.
This trial tests a new way to manage fluids and blood pressure medicines in patients with septic shock. It aims to find if using a specific blood flow measurement (capillary refill time) can improve outcomes compared to standard care.
This study uses heart ultrasound (echocardiography) to help doctors decide how much fluid to give patients with sepsis, a serious blood infection. The goal is to improve how well the heart pumps and help patients recover better.
This study compares two methods to measure fluid responsiveness in patients with sepsis and hypotension: cardiometry (non-invasive heart monitoring) and ultrasound of the IVC vein. The goal is to find a simpler way to guide treatment.
This study is testing a new way of measuring how much fluid leaks from your blood vessels during severe infection (septic shock). The goal is to help doctors decide how much fluid to give, which may improve recovery and prevent complications.
This study is for adults in the intensive care unit with septic shock (a severe infection that drops blood pressure). It looks at how well your body holds fluid and whether treatment can be safely reduced.
