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 study tests whether using a non-invasive monitor to guide fluid and medication decisions helps people with sepsis recover better than standard care. It aims to improve blood flow and organ function without extra needles or procedures.
This trial tests a new approach to treating septic shock, a life-threatening condition where infection causes dangerously low blood pressure. It aims to see if a different way of managing fluids and medications can improve recovery compared to standard care.
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 trial tests a special way to monitor tiny blood vessels (microcirculation) in patients with sepsis. The goal is to see if early treatment based on these readings can help improve recovery.
This study tests a computer software that helps doctors decide how much fluid to give patients in septic shock. It aims to improve blood pressure and oxygen delivery without causing fluid overload.
