Monitoring infection markers in severely burned patients
Part of Infections, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 89 years old.
- You have a burn injury and are in the intensive care unit (ICU).
- You are expected to stay in the ICU for more than 2 days.
- You can be approached within 24 hours of your burn injury.
- You do not have certain other serious conditions, like kidney failure or pancreatitis.
- You are not a prisoner.

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.
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 is comparing two blood tests (Interleukin 6 and Procalcitonin) to find which is better at detecting sepsis (a serious infection) and predicting the risk of death in burn patients in the ICU. If you have moderate burns and are otherwise healthy, this trial could help improve care for burn victims.
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 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 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.
