DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT04722939Recruiting
Testing brain function outcomes after ICU kidney failure treatment
This trial studies how treating severe kidney injury in the ICU may affect patients’ brain and thinking function over time. It compares measurements of brain activity and function after starting kidney replacement therapy.
Kingston, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07802379Recruiting
Tube feeding tolerance with different blood pressure medications in the intensive care unit
This study looks at how critically ill patients on a breathing tube and receiving nutrition through a tube tolerate their feeding, depending on the dose of medications given to manage their blood pressure. It aims to see if feeding works well while patients are on these medications.
IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT07735182Recruiting
Gut bacteria and organ damage in sepsis

Tallinn, TallinnAges 18 years+ - NCT07582926Recruiting
Cortisol Levels and Outcomes in Critically Ill Infection Patients
This study examines how the body's stress hormone (cortisol) relates to survival in patients with severe blood infections in the ICU. Understanding this relationship may help doctors better predict and manage outcomes in critically ill patients.
AnkaraAges 18 years+ - NCT07571317Recruiting
Predicting breathing tube removal success in ICU patients
This study tests whether two simple breathing measurements can predict whether patients in the ICU are ready to have their breathing tube removed. If successful, it could help doctors make safer decisions about when patients can breathe on their own.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT07537621Recruiting
How the heart's right chamber responds to fluids in ICU
This study watches how the right side of your heart responds when doctors give you extra fluids to improve blood flow during a critical illness. Understanding this response may help doctors make better decisions about fluid treatment in the ICU.
ReimsAges 18 years+ - NCT07536750Recruiting
Comparing Two Sedation Drugs for ICU Patients on Breathing Support
This study compares two medications (ciprofol and propofol) used to keep ICU patients calm and comfortable while they receive non-invasive breathing support, such as oxygen masks or tubes that help them breathe without a breathing tube in their windpipe.
