Dopamine Versus Norepinephrine for the Treatment of Vasopressor Dependent Septic Shock
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Dopamine and Norepinephrine for Septic Shock. Completed, enrolled 252 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
We are performing a prospective, randomized, controlled trial of dopamine versus norepinephrine for septic shock. The trial will enroll patients with suspected or documented site of infection and having 2 out of the three SIRS criteria. Patients will also be receiving standard of care, early-goal directed therapy including but not limited to fluid resuscitation, appropriate and early antibiotics, source control and evaluation for drotrecogin alpha where deemed appropriate, while being supported for septic shock.
