Biomarkers of inflammation and infection in critical care
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study looks at markers of inflammation, infection, and immunity in patients who are in the critical care area. It aims to find early signs of how severe the illness might become, how well treatments work, and if infections will develop.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial looks at how the immune system changes after septic shock in adults in the ICU. It may help doctors better predict or manage complications by studying blood markers a few days after starting treatment.
This study tracks how doctors treat septic shock in the ICU to learn what works best. If you have septic shock, joining this study helps researchers understand which treatments are most effective, and you'll get the same care you would anyway.
This study is testing a blood test that may help doctors diagnose sepsis faster. It involves people with sepsis and healthy volunteers to compare results.
This study looks at how the bone marrow behaves in people with sepsis and other critical illnesses. It aims to see if changes in bone marrow are linked to how sick a patient is and their chance of recovery. Participants will have a small sample of bone marrow taken from the pelvis.
This research study measures special blood markers (microRNAs) in patients with septic shock or critical illness to understand how the body responds to severe infection. Results may help doctors better diagnose and treat sepsis in the future.
This study looks at how sepsis (a severe infection) affects the immune system. The goal is to see if certain blood markers can help doctors predict recovery, which could improve the care of future patients with septic shock.
