Primary outcomePrimary: Lactate Level 24 Hours After the First Study Medication Dose — 2.6; 2.5 mmol/L — p=0.40
Summary
The major goal of this project is to determine whether the use of thiamine in patients with septic shock will result in attenuation of lactic acidosis and a more rapid reversal of shock.
