Burn recovery study with sepsis risk monitoring
Part of Infections, Injuries & trauma, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 to 80 years old.
- You have a burn covering more than 10% of your body.
- You are being treated at a participating hospital (Emory/Grady, USF, or USAISR).
- You are at risk for or currently experiencing a serious health decline due to your burn.
- You are not pregnant, a prisoner, or under 18.
- You or your legal representative can give permission to join the study.

This trial tests whether giving the Tdap vaccine (a combined vaccine against tetanus, diphtheria, and whooping cough) to burn patients is safe and works well. It aims to see if the vaccine can help prevent infections in burn wounds.
This study looks at abnormal immune cells (from the bone marrow) in people with sepsis or severe trauma with shock. It aims to understand why the body’s immune response gets out of balance, which could help guide future treatments.
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 tests a blood test called presepsin to see how well it detects sepsis in people with severe burns. If you have burns covering at least 20% of your body and your doctor suspects sepsis, this trial may help improve early diagnosis and treatment.
This study looks at how certain natural molecules in your blood might affect recovery from severe infections or sepsis. By understanding these molecules, doctors hope to better predict outcomes and personalize treatment for patients in the ICU.
This study tests a special camera that takes pictures of burns to help doctors see how deep they are. It is for people with recent heat burns on their head, hands, or feet, and aims to improve how doctors decide on treatment.
