Personalized Fluid Resuscitation in the Emergency Department: A Pilot Trial
Personalized Fluid Resuscitation for Improved Sepsis Resuscitation Quality in the Emergency Department

40 participants

INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to learn if a fluid assessment using non-invasive cardiac output monitoring (NICOM) is helpful for patients with sepsis who have low blood pressure in the Emergency Department (ED). The study will measure whether the NICOM assessment changes fluid resuscitation practices and is feasible in the ED setting. All patients will receive standard medical care. Patients assigned to the NICOM group will receive a one-time, non-invasive bedside fluid assessment using NICOM, in addition to standard care, and the results of the fluid assessment will be provided to the treating physician.

Interventions
Trained study team members will perform a NICOM fluid assessment. This assessment involves performing a passive leg raise while measuring change in stroke volume (SV) with the non-invasive cardiac output monitor (NICOM). A SV change \>=10% during the passive leg raise indicates a patient is fluid responsive. The results of the NICOM fluid assessment will be provided to the patient's treating physician
