Reversibility of Diastolic Disfunction in Septic Shock
Reversibility of Diastolic Disfunction in Septic Shock
Objectives: To study the prognostic value of the evolution of diastolic function according to
 fluid balance in patients admitted to the ICU with a diagnosis of septic shock, in terms of
 mortality (ICU and hospital) and mortality at 90 days.

 2.4. Secondary objectives: A) Incidence and reversibility of myocardial dysfunction (left
 ventricular systolic and diastolic) in septic shock.

 B) Incidence and reversibility of diastolic dysfunction according to the echocardiographic
 criterion used.

 C) Incidence and reversibility of right ventricular systolic dysfunction.
Inclusion Criteria:

 -  Patients admitted to the ICU with diagnosis of septic shock, and stay longer than 48h

 Exclusion Criteria:

 -  No echocardiographic window

 -  Fatal prognosis with do not resuscitate orders at admission

 -  Previous history of Ischemic cardiomyopathy

 -  Valvular prosthesis

 -  Advanced degree of valvular disorder

 -  Advanced degree of pericardial effusion
