This study compares the efficacy of two drugs i.e Adrenaline and dopamine in fluid refractory type of septic shock which is a dreadful medical condition especially in children. The efficacy will be checked based on heart rate , GCS, capillary refill time , palpable pripheral pulse , urine output and systolic blood pressure.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a randomized control trial in which children / patients diagnosed with Fluid refractory Septic shock will be provided with one of the two drugs ina randomzied way and their efficacy will be assesed on the basis of correction of various parameters at various points of time.
