Early Sepsis Detection Tool for Children
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This trial checks if a new tool can help doctors spot sepsis early in children. If your child is under 18, had a blood culture, and received strong antibiotics within the first day in the hospital, they may qualify.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Must be a child under 18 years old.
- Must have had a blood culture taken (even if the result was negative).
- Must have been started on broad-spectrum antibiotics within the first 24 hours after admission.
- Must not have left the hospital against medical advice without outcome data.

This trial is testing a new tool that uses artificial intelligence and biomarkers (substances in your blood) to help doctors recognize sepsis earlier. If you have been diagnosed with sepsis or are suspected of having it, this study may help improve how quickly and accurately it's detected.
This study tests a new toolkit to help doctors better diagnose sepsis in children during emergency transfer calls. It looks back at records and call recordings to see if the toolkit improves how sepsis is spotted early.
This trial tests a new, faster way to find bacteria in the blood of children with suspected sepsis. It uses a molecular test that may give results sooner than standard cultures, helping doctors treat infections more quickly.
This study tests two new blood tests to see if they can help doctors find sepsis earlier in the emergency department. Sepsis is a serious condition where the body overreacts to an infection, and finding it quickly could lead to faster treatment and better outcomes.
This trial is looking for patients who have an infection and are showing early signs of getting sicker, like a high warning score. It aims to find out if doctors can identify those at risk of sepsis sooner so they can start treatment earlier.
This study uses special blood testing to learn what is happening in the immune system during sepsis in children and how it may relate to organ injury. Your results may help doctors recognize and treat sepsis earlier and more accurately.
