Background Sepsis and septic shock are life-threatening diseases with high mortality rate in intensive care unit (ICU). Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication of sepsis, and its occurrence is a poor prognostic sign to septic patients.

Circulating microparticles from septic shock patients exert differential tissue expression of enzymes related to inflammation and oxidative stress [PDF]
Objective: Septic shock is characterized by hypotension and multiple organ failure after infection of microorganisms. Septic shock patients display high levels of circulating microparticles.

Cutoff Values of Hemodynamic Parameters in Pediatric Refractory Septic Shock
Background: Refractory septic shock can cause severe morbidities and mortalities in children. Resuscitation based on hemodynamics is important in children with critical illness.

Diastolic shock index and clinical outcomes in patients with septic shock
Background Loss of vascular tone is a key pathophysiological feature of septic shock. Combination of gradual diastolic hypotension and tachycardia could reflect more serious vasodilatory conditions.

Acute kidney injury is associated with a decrease in cortical renal perfusion during septic shock
Background Renal perfusion status remains poorly studied at the bedside during septic shock. We sought to measure cortical renal perfusion in patients with septic shock during their first 3 days of care using renal contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS ...
