Official Title: The Value of Peripheral Arterial Resistive Index in Evaluation of Tissue Perfusion in Patients With Septic Shock
Brief Summary:
In patients with septic shock, routine arterial blood pressure and central venous pressure are monitored in ICU.
Conventional methods such as blood pressure and central venous pressure in septic patients cannot provide sufficient information in the follow-up due to the body's compensation mechanisms.
The systemic vascular resistance index, which can be measured invasively or non-invasively with advanced hemodynamic monitoring methods, is a parameter that plays an important role in the management of septic patients.
Resistive index (Pourcelot Index) is an ultrasonic measurement method used to evaluate tissue perfusion and microcirculation.
Since peripheral tissue perfusion is impaired in septic patients, the investigators think resistive index may be useful for management of sepsis.
There are studies in the literature on the use of resistive index in the follow-up of patients.
The study will be about whether there is a correlation between the systemic vascular resistance index measured by cardiac output measurement, which is one of the advanced monitoring methods routinely used in the group requiring mechanical ventilation support in patients with septic shock, and the peripheral arterial resistive index, which is routinely used to evaluate tissue perfusion and microcirculation.
