Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1.To measure the LV global longitudinal strain (GLS) and RV strain using 2D speckle-tracking echocardiography and classify the degree of myocardial impairment in both sepsis and septic shock patients. 2.To assess left ventricular (LV) and right ventricular (RV) function in patients with sepsis and septic shock using conventional echocardiographic parameters within 24 hours of ICU admission and at the time of recovery. Timepoint: Within 24 hours , at 72 hours and at 7 days or at recovery | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
