Episode Synopsis

🫀 Septic Shock, Refined at the Fingertips ⏱️   A powerful new JAMA (2025) trial brings us one step closer to truly personalized resuscitation. The ANDROMEDA-SHOCK-2 study shows that targeting capillary refill time (CRT) — a simple bedside sign — can shorten time on organ support vs usual care, without increasing mortality.   Key insight: Sometimes the most elegant solutions are low-tech, high-touch, and right at the bedside.   🧠 Precision 🤚 Physiology 💡 Pragmatism   #Sepsis #CriticalCare #PersonalizedMedicine #JAMA #Hemodynamics #ICU #Shock
