Arterial stiffness in adults with sepsis
Part of Heart & circulation, Infections clinical trials.
This study measures how stiff your arteries are during sepsis, which may help doctors understand your condition better. You need to be an adult in the ICU with sepsis and be tested within 24 hours.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You are currently in the ICU with sepsis
- You can be scanned within the first 24 hours after ICU admission
- You do not have end-stage kidney disease or a kidney transplant
- You do not have kidney artery narrowing or a blocked urinary tract
