Detailed Description

The aim of this study is to compare blood pressure obtained using routine blood pressure sphygmomanometer, in patients with invasive arterial pressure monitoring that have septic shock, to a non-invasive device that continuously monitors central blood pressure (CareTaker).

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Caretaker
Comparing blood pressure obtained using routine blood pressure sphygmomanometer to a non-invasive device that continuously monitors central blood pressure (CareTaker).
Application of Caretaker device to subjects that have septic shock and that have an invasive arterial pressure monitor placed.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Comparing blood pressure measurements by the Caretaker device to blood pressure measurements made with an intra-arterial pressure catheter.
Time Frame: 20 minutes
The primary outcome measure will be the average difference in systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurements between the investigational device (Caretaker) and the reference (intra-arterial catheter pressure) in subjects that have septic shock. In line with blood pressure validation guidelines, we will obtain multiple investigational-reference measurement pairs in each subject (20 minutes total) and will average the difference over all pairs from all subjects.
20 minutes

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Comparing blood pressure measurements by the Caretaker device to blood pressure measurements made with an upper arm cuff.
Time Frame: 20 minutes
Secondary outcome measure will be the average difference in systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurements between the investigational device (Caretaker) and a brachial cuff in subjects that have septic shock. In line with blood pressure validation guidelines, we will obtain multiple investigational-reference measurement pairs in each subject (4 pairs over 20 minutes) and will average the difference over all pairs from all subjects.
