Brief Summary   This prospective, observational study will be conducted in the critical care department at Holy Family Hospital, New Delhi, focusing on patients over 18 years of age with septic shock admitted to the ICU. The study will follow the Surviving Sepsis Campaign (SSC) 2021 guidelines for managing septic shock, including optimizing preload with fluid resuscitation and vasopressor infusion to maintain a MAP greater than or equal to 65 mmHg. Various dynamic resuscitation measures, such as pulse pressure variation, inferior Vena cava assessment, and mini fluid challenge, will guide fluid therapy. Safety indicators, such as clinical judgement and lung ultrasound findings, will be used to adjust fluid and vasopressor therapy. A multimodal perfusion assessment will be performed at baseline and at multiple time points (3,6,12 and 24 hours) after resuscitation, including macro-hemodynamic variables, lactate clearance, and peripheral perfusion assessment via capillary refill time. All patients will be followed up until discharge or for 30 days, collecting data on demographics, sepsis sources, management, and clinical parameters for analysis.
