Over-resuscitation including fluid overload has been associated with increased morbidity (prolonged duration of organ failure) and mortality in septic shock. "One-size-fits-all" resuscitation strategies may increase septic shock mortality. However, clinical studies on individualized resuscitation are lacking. Hemodynamic phenotyping may allow to individualize septic shock resuscitation. The ANDROMEDA-SHOCK trial found that a simple clinical and bedside CRT-targeted resuscitation reduces organ dysfunction and 28-day mortality in septic shock. The current study will examine the hypothesis that a CRT-targeted resuscitation based on hemodynamic phenotyping considering within an decision tree usual bedside clinical parameters such as pulse pressure, diastolic blood pressure, fluid responsiveness and cardiac performance can further decrease mortality in septic shock as compared to usual care.
