Glucose distribution in severe burn patients
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at how glucose moves in the body after a severe burn. It may help doctors better manage fluids and sugar levels in the first hours of treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have burns covering at least 30% of your body.
- Your burn was caused by heat (fire, hot liquid, steam).
- You are being treated at the CHR Metz-Thionville burn center within 8 hours of the burn.
- You are not diabetic and do not use insulin.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether the drug metformin, commonly used for diabetes, can help reduce complications and improve survival in older adults with serious burns. If you qualify, taking metformin might lower your risk of death and other burn-related health problems.
This trial tests a blood-filtering device (Efferon LPS NEO) that removes harmful substances from the blood of children with severe thermal burns. It may help reduce complications and improve recovery.
This study is testing how immune cells use sugar (glucose) in people who are in the intensive care unit (ICU). By doing this test, researchers hope to learn more about how the body fights illness during critical care, which could lead to better treatments.
This trial tests whether giving fresh frozen plasma early helps treat burn shock and improve blood vessel function in adults with large burns. It may reduce the amount of fluid needed and prevent complications.
This trial looks at whether giving or measuring albumin (a blood protein) can help predict outcomes for people with very severe burns in the ICU. It may help doctors understand who is at higher risk and guide care during the first day after injury.
This study collects tissue and blood samples from burn patients to improve a computer model that predicts sepsis (a severe infection). The goal is to help doctors identify and treat sepsis earlier in burn patients.
