Immune response to fungus in burn patients
Treatments studied
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at how the immune system fights fungus after a burn. It may help doctors understand which patients are at higher risk for infection and how to better protect them.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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.
This study tracks how your immune system responds to serious mold infections, like aspergillosis or mucormycosis. It may help doctors understand why some infections are hard to treat and could lead to better care.
This Phase 3 study tests whether giving preventive antibiotics lowers infection risk when you need surgery to remove burned skin and place a skin graft. It may help patients heal with fewer serious infections, but it also depends on your antibiotic allergy and current health status.
This study compares two ways of finding germs (microbes) in burn wounds: traditional tissue swabs/cultures versus a newer DNA-based method. It may help improve how clinicians understand burn infections and tailor care.
This study looks at how burns change the bacteria on your skin and in your gut. It may help doctors understand healing better.
This study looks at how severe burns change the bacteria in your gut and your immune system. It will track these changes to better understand recovery and find new ways to help healing.
