Brief Summary   This study is an prospective observational study to assess the peripheral venous to arterial pCO2 gap in paediatric septic shock and it will be conducted in the department of Paediatrics of Maulana Azad Medical College and associated Lok Nayak Hospital, New Delhi. The primary objective is to determine the change in the peripheral venous to arterial pCO2 gap at 1 hour and 6 hours from the baseline. The secondary objectives are to determine the proportion of patients having high peripheral venous to arterial pCO2 gap at 0 hour, 1 hour and 6 hours; to compare the peripheral venous to arterial pCO2 gap with the outcome and to compare the peripheral venous to arterial pCO2 gap and lactate clearance. Our hypothesis is that the septic shock patients having high peripheral venous to arterial pCO2 gap will have poorer outcomes because of circulatory failure and those patients showing response to treatment in the form of improving pCO2 gap will have better outcomes as compared to those persistently having high peripheral venous to arterial pCO2 gap.
