Summary
Preliminary studies show that giving a "cocktail" of intravenous vitamin C, vitamin B1, and steroids to critically ill patients with septic shock may dramatically improve mortality in those patients. These studies suffer from inadequate design due to lack of controls and blinding to prove the causal effect. Our goal is to conduct a prospective blinded randomized control trial to investigate whether this intervention truly effect outcomes.
