Study of different patterns of critical illness in ICU patients
This study looks at how critical illness can vary from person to person in the intensive care unit (ICU). It mainly helps researchers understand these differences and may improve future care for ICU patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be 18 years or older
- Be admitted to the ICU urgently for a sudden, unexpected critical illness
- Have an invasive blood line in place (an arterial or venous line) for blood tests
- Not be in a planned ICU admission (this is for emergency cases)
- Be able to get informed consent (and not be unable to participate due to ongoing CPR or strict isolation rules)

This study looks at how your immune system and inflammation affect your recovery in the intensive care unit. Researchers want to understand why some patients do better than others.
This study looks at patients who have been in the ICU for at least 8 days and have certain serious conditions. The goal is to understand their health patterns over time. You may be able to join if you have been in the ICU for 8+ days and meet one of the listed conditions.
This study aims to create a tool to predict survival in older adults (75+) who are admitted to the ICU from the emergency room. It may help doctors better understand individual risks and make more informed care decisions.
This study looks at how having a weakened immune system affects the risk of getting infections with hard-to-treat bacteria in the ICU. Depending on your immune status, you may be placed in a group that helps doctors understand who is most at risk.
