Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To categorize the cerebral flow velocity phenotypes derived from transcranial doppler in children with sepsis.Timepoint: TCD measurements will be done at 1. Within 6 hours of PICU admission 2. At 12 hours of PICU admission 3. At 24 hours of PICU admission 4. At 48 hours of PICU admission | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary objective: 1. To study the correlation between TCD derived CBFV phenotypes with A. Hemodynamic parameters (HR, MAP, Lactates, perfusion index). B. Electro cardiometry derived cardiac output indices. C. NIRS derived regional cerebral oxygenation parameters. 2. To study the association between TCD derived CBFV phenotypes with the clinical outcomes A. Duration of inotrope requirement B. Duration of mechanical ventilation C. Duration of PICU/hospital stay. D.
