Oxygen therapy and blood markers in ICU patients with sepsis
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how early oxygen levels relate to changes in two blood markers (uric acid and albumin) in patients with sepsis in the intensive care unit. It may help doctors understand how oxygen treatment affects recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You are in the intensive care unit with sepsis (a severe infection response)
- You receive oxygen therapy with at least 30% concentration
- You have blood tests for uric acid, albumin, and lactate taken at ICU admission and 24 hours later
- You or your family member gives permission for the study

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial studies whether uric acid and lactate levels can help predict outcomes in sepsis patients aged 65 and older who are admitted to the intensive care unit. It aims to find better ways to monitor patients and guide treatment.
This trial studies how giving extra oxygen (hyperoxia) affects blood flow in the brain for patients on a breathing machine in the intensive care unit. The goal is to see if short bursts of higher oxygen levels are safe and how they change brain activity.
This study is testing if measuring oxygen levels in urine can help predict when kidney injury starts or gets better in ICU patients with shock. It aims to guide treatment earlier and avoid kidney damage.
This study tests whether a specific oxygen level monitor (end-tidal oxygen, or EtO2) can be used during “preoxygenation” before breathing tube placement. It may help clinicians intubate more safely for people who urgently need a breathing tube due to serious breathing failure.
This trial compares how well different fingertip pulse oximeters measure oxygen levels, using an arterial blood test as the reference. It may help improve oxygen monitoring for ICU patients, especially when measurements can be hard or inaccurate.
This study tests whether giving a little more oxygen to ICU patients on breathing machines leads to better recovery. It compares usual oxygen levels to a more liberal target to see which is safer and more effective.
