7 lipca 2026 zaktualizowane przez: Esraa Tarek Mahmoud Ahmed, Assiut University

Splanchnic Perfusion Monitoring Using Doppler Ultrasound in Septic Shock Patients: Correlation With Lactate Clearance, Organ Dysfunction, and Enteral Feeding Intolerance

evaluation whether splanchnic Doppler ultrasound indices (SMA resistive index, portal vein pulsatility fraction, hepatic artery resistive index/flow parameters) can:

Reflect regional tissue perfusion in septic shock, as correlated with lactate clearance.
Associate with organ dysfunction severity and progression (SOFA dynamics).
Predict enteral feeding intolerance in ICU patients receiving enteral nutrition

Szczegółowy opis

Sepsis is a life-threatening condition caused by a dysregulated host response to infection, leading to severe organ dysfunction. Globally, sepsis accounts for approximately 48.9 million cases and 11 million deaths annually.

A central clinical challenge is hemodynamic incoherence, where systemic targets (e.g., mean arterial pressure [MAP]) may improve while regional tissue perfusion remains impaired. Conventional systemic markers, including blood lactate clearance and central venous oxygen saturation, reflect global metabolic status and may lag behind microvascular dysfunction within specific organ beds.

The hepatosplanchnic circulation is particularly vulnerable during septic shock and may contribute to progression toward multiple organ failure through a sustained inflammatory cascade. The splanchnic region has been described as the "motor" of multiple organ failure and the "canary" of the body.

Bedside Doppler ultrasound has emerged as a noninvasive tool to assess regional perfusion. Doppler-derived indices such as the resistive index (and related parameters including portal pulsatility fraction) may detect early hemodynamic impairment at the organ-bed level before systemic biomarkers change.

Accordingly, improved bedside perfusion monitoring especially for the splanchnic circulation-may help optimize resuscitation strategy and nutritional management, and may clarify relationships between regional perfusion, organ dysfunction, and enteral feeding tolerance.

Badana populacja

Adult patients (≥18 years) admitted to the ICU with septic shock according to Sepsis-3 criteria, who are eligible for enrollment and undergo splanchnic Doppler ultrasound evaluation 24 hours after ICU admission.

Opis

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Adult patients (≥18 years). 2. ICU admission with septic shock (Sepsis-3 definitions).

Exclusion Criteria:

- 1. Advanced chronic liver disease. 2. Portal vein thrombosis. 3. Mesenteric ischemia (or clinical suspicion strongly suggesting it). 4. Severe right-sided heart failure. 5. Pregnancy. 6. Morbid obesity or any condition causing poor/unsafe ultrasound acoustic window.

7. Intra-abdominal conditions preventing adequate Doppler assessment. 8. Limitation of care / do-not-resuscitate orders. 9. Pre-existing major gastrointestinal bleeding/obstruction if that is relevant to enteral feeding intolerance outcomes in your ICU.

Podstawowe miary wyniku

Miara wyniku	Opis środka	Ramy czasowe
Association between portal vein PF and SOFA progression Ramy czasowe: baseline through 72 hours after ICU admission	To evaluate the association between portal vein pulsatility fraction and progression in the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, defined as the difference between the baseline SOFA score and the SOFA score at 24 hours, or the peak SOFA score within 72 hours after ICU admission. The SOFA score ranges from 0 to 24, with higher scores indicating more severe organ dysfunction and a worse clinical outcome.	baseline through 72 hours after ICU admission
Lactate clearance (%) at 6 and 24 hours after ICU admission Ramy czasowe: baseline through 24 hours after ICU admission	Lactate clearance, expressed as a percentage (%), calculated from serial arterial blood lactate concentrations measured at baseline, 6 hours, and 24 hours after ICU admission. Blood lactate concentration will be measured using standard arterial blood gas/laboratory analysis. The correlation between the baseline superior mesenteric artery (SMA) resistive index measured by Doppler ultrasound and lactate clearance at 6 and 24 hours will be evaluated.	baseline through 24 hours after ICU admission
Incidence of enteral feeding intolerance within 72 hours after ICU admission Ramy czasowe: within 72 hours after ICU admission	Incidence (%) of enteral feeding intolerance occurring within 72 hours after ICU admission, assessed according to predefined clinical criteria (e.g., vomiting, abdominal distension, or interruption of enteral nutrition due to intolerance). Superior mesenteric artery resistive index (SMA RI), portal vein pulsatility fraction (PVPF), and hepatic artery resistive index (HARI), measured by Doppler ultrasound at 24 hours after ICU admission, will be correlated with the occurrence of enteral feeding intolerance.	within 72 hours after ICU admission

Length of ICU Stay Ramy czasowe: From ICU admission until ICU discharge	Length of ICU stay, measured in days from ICU admission until ICU discharge. Splanchnic Doppler ultrasound parameters, including superior mesenteric artery resistive index (SMA RI), portal vein pulsatility fraction (PVPF), and hepatic artery resistive index (HARI), measured 24 hours after ICU admission, will be evaluated for their predictive value for ICU length of stay.	From ICU admission until ICU discharge
Duration of Vasopressor Therapy Ramy czasowe: From ICU admission until discontinuation of vasopressor therapy	Duration of vasopressor therapy, measured in days from ICU admission until permanent discontinuation of vasopressor support. Splanchnic Doppler ultrasound parameters, including superior mesenteric artery resistive index (SMA RI), portal vein pulsatility fraction (PVPF), and hepatic artery resistive index (HARI), measured 24 hours after ICU admission, will be evaluated for their predictive value for vasopressor therapy duration.	From ICU admission until discontinuation of vasopressor therapy
ICU Mortality Ramy czasowe: From ICU admission until ICU discharge	ICU mortality, reported as the percentage of participants who die during the ICU stay. Splanchnic Doppler ultrasound parameters, including superior mesenteric artery resistive index (SMA RI), portal vein pulsatility fraction (PVPF), and hepatic artery resistive index (HARI), measured 24 hours after ICU admission, will be evaluated for their predictive value for ICU mortality.
