Objectives

Narrative objectives1

This clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the hypothesis that, in patients with septic shock undergoing initial resuscitation, a permissive hypotension strategy (allowing lower mean arterial pressure (MAP) as long as peripheral tissue perfusion is adequately maintained) will provide greater clinical benefit compared with usual care (MAP is targeted at 65 mmHg in accordance with the Surviving Sepsis Campaign Guideline 2021).

Assessment

Primary outcomes

Catecholamine-free days at 28 days

Key secondary outcomes

1. Ischemia-related adverse events within 72 hours after randomization (myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, intestinal necrosis, or irreversible peripheral limb ischemia).
2. Arrhythmias within 72 hours after randomization (ventricular tachycardia or supraventricular arrhythmias with hemodynamic compromise).
3. Hemorrhagic events within 72 hours after randomization.
4. All-cause mortality at 28 and 90 days after randomization.
5. Lactate clearance at 24 hours after randomization.
6. SOFA score at 72 hours after randomization.
7. Ventilator-free days at 28 days.
8. Renal replacement therapy-free days at 28 days.
9. KDIGO criteria at 28 days or at hospital discharge
10. Win ratio, defined in the following hierarchical order: (i)90-day mortality, (ii) ventilator days, (iii) renal replacement therapy days, and (iv) vasopressor days.

Interventions/Control_1

In the Permissive Hypotension group, following achievement of an initial resuscitation target of MAP 65 mmHg, the target MAP will be stepwise reduced in 5-mmHg increments as long as capillary refill time (CRT) remains below 3 seconds. To minimize the risk of inadequate organ perfusion, the lower limit of MAP will be set at 50 mmHg .

Interventions/Control_2

In the Usual Care group, MAP will be maintained at 65 mmHg in accordance with the 2021 Surviving Sepsis Campaign Guidelines.

Key inclusion criteria

Individuals who meet all the following criteria:
1. Patients who are aged 18 years or older
2. Patients who are diagnosed with septic shock clinically (irrespective of out-of-hospital or in-hospital onset)
3. Patients who admitted to intensive care unit.

Key exclusion criteria

Individuals who met either of the following criteria:
1. Patients who have been on vasopressors for 3 or more hours
2. Patients who have the advanced directives restricting implementation of the standard critical care (e.g., catecholamine use, mechanical ventilation, and renal replacement therapy)
3. Patients experiencing cardiac arrest before randomization
4. Patients with other diseases that require stricter blood pressure control than for maintaining hemodynamics in septic shock
5. Patients who need to be arrested, detained, or put in custody by law enforcement or legal agencies
6. Patients who refuse to participate in the trial
7. Patient who is ultimately unable to provide consent, either by themselves or through a legally authorized representative
8. Patients deemed ineligible to participate by a clinical physician
