Triglyceride-glucose index and cardiac risk in septic shock
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study looks at whether two simple blood tests can help predict heart problems in people with septic shock. It may help doctors identify who is at higher risk.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You must be in the intensive care unit (ICU) with septic shock.
- Your shock must be caused only by infection, not by other conditions.
- You must not have a history of heart disease, such as heart failure or an irregular heartbeat.

This study checks if a simple blood test (the ratio of urea to creatinine) can help doctors understand changes in your metabolism during septic shock. It compares this test to a more detailed measurement of how your body uses energy. This might help guide your treatment without extra invasive procedures.
This trial checks heart function, specifically blood flow and oxygen delivery, in patients with septic shock. It can help doctors better understand how the heart is working during this severe infection.
This trial looks at how the immune system changes after septic shock in adults in the ICU. It may help doctors better predict or manage complications by studying blood markers a few days after starting treatment.
This study looks at how often thyroid and adrenal problems occur in people with sepsis or septic shock in the ICU. It may help doctors understand if these hormone issues happen more often during critical illness.
This study observes how doctors treat septic shock in intensive care units. It aims to understand current practices and improve care for patients with severe infections and low blood pressure.
This study looks at whether certain blood test results can help predict how well people with sepsis will do. Sepsis is a serious infection that can affect the whole body. You may be able to join if you have sepsis and are over 18.
