Recruiting studies
- NCT07200817Recruiting
Blood markers to predict outcome in sepsis patients
This study looks at simple blood tests (like levels of certain white blood cells and a protein called procalcitonin) to see if they can predict how well people with sepsis will do in the intensive care unit. It may help doctors understand your infection better.
CairoAges 18–70 - NCT07179276Recruiting
Testing CO₂ gap to guide septic shock treatment
This trial checks if measuring the carbon dioxide gap (a sign of how well blood is flowing to organs) can help doctors improve treatment for people in septic shock. Septic shock is a severe infection that causes very low blood pressure and organ damage.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT07126574Enrolling by invitation
Blood tests for diagnosing sepsis in adult burn patients
This study is testing how well certain blood tests can detect sepsis (a severe infection in the blood) in adults with burns. If you are in the burn ICU with a significant burn and your doctors suspect sepsis, your blood test results may help guide treatment.
Seoul, SeoulAges 18 years+ - NCT06891599Recruiting
Blood test for clotting in sepsis and trauma ICU patients
This study is testing a special blood test called ROTEM to see how well it can predict bleeding problems in ICU patients with sepsis or severe trauma. It may help doctors give the right treatment faster.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT07451886RecruitingPhase 2
Fludrocortisone for septic shock
This study tests whether adding a steroid called fludrocortisone to standard care helps people with septic shock (a dangerous drop in blood pressure from infection) get better faster. If you are in the ICU, on a breathing machine, and need strong medication for your blood pressure, you may be eligible.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT06830369Recruiting
Virtual reality for comfort after major surgery in the ICU
This study tests if using virtual reality can help you feel more comfortable while recovering in the intensive care unit (ICU) after major surgery. If you are having heart or major abdominal surgery and will stay in the ICU for at least 2 days, you may be able to try a VR program to see if it eases your stay.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT06809868Recruiting
Study of genetic elements in sepsis and aging
This trial looks at how certain genetic elements may affect the immune system in older adults with sepsis. It aims to understand why older patients may respond differently to severe infections.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06791889Recruiting
Tracking bacteria in blood of ICU sepsis patients
This study uses a highly sensitive blood test (DdPCR) to quickly find and monitor harmful bacteria in ICU patients with sepsis, aiming to improve early detection and treatment.
WuhanAges 18 years+ - NCT06766461RecruitingPhase 4
Optimizing antibiotic dosing in ICU patients with septic shock
This trial checks if giving higher doses of beta-lactam antibiotics (a type of strong antibiotic) right from the start helps people in the ICU with septic shock. It aims to find the best dose to fight the infection quickly.
RotterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT06749483Recruiting
Gut bacteria and infection in intensive care patients
This study looks at how gut bacteria affect severe infections in the ICU. It tests whether the microbiome can be a source of sepsis and a target for treatment. If you are critically ill or a long-term sepsis survivor, you might help find new ways to prevent infections.
Jena, ThuringiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05357170Recruiting
Testing gut bacteria changes after severe ICU illnesses
This study looks at changes in the microbiome (gut bacteria) in adults after serious ICU illnesses like sepsis, major trauma, or open heart/abdominal surgery. It may help researchers understand why recovery can be harder in some people and guide future treatments.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18–110 - NCT07740304Recruiting
Blood flow test to predict survival in sepsis patients
This study checks if a simple blood flow measurement can help predict which patients with sepsis are at higher risk of dying within 28 days. The goal is to see if this test can guide treatment decisions in the ICU.
Edirne, MerkezAges 18 years+ - NCT07448805Recruiting
Accuracy and safety of a glucose monitor in the ICU
This trial tests a continuous glucose monitoring system (Syai Tag) in the intensive care unit (ICU). It aims to see how well it measures blood sugar levels safely compared to standard methods.
MariborAges 18 years+ - NCT06062303Recruiting
Capillary refill time to guide septic shock treatment
This trial tests a new way of giving fluids and medicines to people with septic shock. It focuses on a simple sign called capillary refill time (how fast color returns when you press a fingernail) to guide treatment, aiming to improve recovery.
ReimsAges 18 years+ - NCT06881927RecruitingPhase 4
Reducing anti-rejection meds in ICU for kidney transplant patients
This study tests whether quickly reducing your anti-rejection medicines during a life-threatening ICU stay can help your kidneys recover and improve your overall outcome. It is for kidney transplant recipients with septic shock or severe breathing failure.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT06692400Recruiting
Suctioning, pain, and blood markers in intubated patients
This study looks at how routine suctioning of the breathing tube affects pain levels and certain substances in the blood in adults who are on a breathing machine for serious infections like flu, pneumonia, COVID, or sepsis. It may help doctors better understand and manage your comfort during this procedure.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05537298Recruiting
Help for muscle recovery after serious ICU illness
This trial looks at how to improve muscle strength and function after a stay in the ICU for sepsis or acute respiratory failure. If you recover from the illness but your muscles become weak, this study may test an approach to help rebuild strength faster.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07449416Recruiting
Ceribell Delirium Monitor Study in ICU Patients
This pilot study tests a special brain monitor (called Ceribell EEG) to see if it can help detect delirium in ICU patients. Delirium is a state of confusion that can happen during a serious illness, and this monitor may help doctors catch it early.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03720860Recruiting
Study inflammatory signals in sudden kidney injury in ICU
This study looks at substances related to inflammation to better understand sudden kidney problems in people who are very sick in the ICU. It may help improve how kidney injury is predicted and treated after severe illness or major events.
Uppsala, Uppsala CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT07735182Recruiting
Gut bacteria and organ damage in sepsis
This study looks at how bacteria in your gut and other signs in your body affect liver and kidney damage in people with sepsis. It also compares findings to healthy volunteers to see what is different.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06545838Recruiting
Testing renin levels to predict septic shock severity
This trial checks if a blood test measuring renin (a kidney hormone) can help predict how severe septic shock will be and how well patients recover. It looks for early clues in ICU patients with sepsis.
MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT06384287Recruiting
Checking skin blood flow in ICU patients with shock
This study tests a new way to check blood flow in the tiny blood vessels of the skin for people in the ICU with circulatory failure from sepsis or heart failure. It helps doctors understand how well blood is reaching tissues, which may guide treatment.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT07558642Recruiting
Nerve Block to Reduce Confusion in Older ICU Patients
This study tests whether a nerve-blocking injection (stellate ganglion block) can reduce confusion and help restore normal sleep-wake cycles in older adults staying in the intensive care unit. Researchers hope this treatment may help patients recover faster and feel more alert.
Antalya, MuratpaşaAges 65–99 - NCT07610486RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Better ampicillin dosing for preterm infants
This study gives preterm babies the standard antibiotic ampicillin and checks the amount in their blood to find the best dose. It may help make sure the medicine works well and is safe for babies born early.
