Blood flow test to predict survival in sepsis patients
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study checks if a simple blood flow measurement can help predict which patients with sepsis are at higher risk of dying within 28 days. The goal is to see if this test can guide treatment decisions in the ICU.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You can be enrolled within the first 6 hours of being admitted to the ICU
- You or your legal representative can give written permission to join the study

This study looks at how well blood flows to your skin and tissues during sepsis in the ICU. Doctors will check your circulation and see if it relates to how you recover.
This trial tests a special way to monitor tiny blood vessels (microcirculation) in patients with sepsis. The goal is to see if early treatment based on these readings can help improve recovery.
This study looks at whether a simple blood test can help doctors find out if ICU patients with infections are likely to develop sepsis within the next 48 hours. If you join, the researchers will measure a protein in your blood and follow you to see if you get sepsis.
This study looks at a special blood flow monitor (perfusion index) to see if it can help doctors decide when to give blood pressure raising medicines in patients with serious infections. It might help doctors better treat sepsis and septic shock.
This study compares three different methods used by doctors to check if giving fluids through an IV helps improve blood pressure in people with sudden circulatory failure. It helps doctors find the quickest and most accurate way to guide treatment.
This study tests a simple blood test to measure how your blood vessels leak fluid during septic shock. The results may help doctors give the right amount of fluids to keep you stable.
