Wearable patch study to predict sepsis rehospitalization
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study uses a wearable skin patch placed on you during a sepsis hospital stay to help predict whether you might need to be readmitted after discharge. It may help doctors identify who is at higher risk of rehospitalization and plan follow-up care earlier.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be 18 years or older
- Have been admitted to the hospital from the emergency department after sepsis was suspected and confirmed by a specific organ-failure score change
- Have a sepsis episode that started recently (as defined by the study’s timing and scoring rules)
- Not plan to switch to comfort-focused care within 6 hours after sepsis
- Be able to receive a skin patch on your body (no severe burns or skin conditions that block patch placement)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests a wearable sensor system in intensive care patients to see if it can predict sepsis early. Sepsis is a life-threatening reaction to infection, and catching it sooner could lead to faster treatment.
This trial is looking for patients who have an infection and are showing early signs of getting sicker, like a high warning score. It aims to find out if doctors can identify those at risk of sepsis sooner so they can start treatment earlier.
This study looks at whether automatically flagging a sepsis risk score in the electronic health record and having a care team respond with structured steps helps treat sepsis earlier. If you qualify, everything is done through your usual care — you won't have extra visits or be contacted by the research team.
This trial is building a tool to predict sepsis, a life-threatening response to infection, in intensive care patients. It may help doctors act faster to prevent complications.
This study tests a home monitoring system for people who come to the ER or their doctor with a serious infection that could turn into sepsis. The goal is to see if watching you at home can help catch worsening signs early and prevent hospitalization.
This study tracks blood markers of infection in severely burned patients in the ICU. The goal is to see if these markers can help doctors detect sepsis earlier and guide treatment.
