A multicenter prospective cohort study of cardiac ultrasound phenotypes in patients with sepsis: Study protocol for a multicenter prospective cohort trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy significantly increased the mortality of patients with sepsis. The diagnostic criteria for septic cardiomyopathy has not been unified, which brings serious difficulties to clinical treatment. This study aimed to provide evidence for the early identification and intervention in patients with sepsis by clarifying the relationship between the ultrasound phenotype of septic cardiomyopathy and the prognosis of patients with sepsis.

Methods

This was a multicenter, prospective cohort study. The study population will consist of all eligible consecutive patients with sepsis or septic shock who meet the Sepsis 3.0 diagnostic criteria and were aged ≥18 years. Clinical data and echocardiographic measurements will be recorded within 2 h, at the 24
