Alveolar Dead Space as Predictor of Organ Failure in Severe Sepsis

Sepsis Clinical Trial

Official title:
Alveolar Dead Space as Predictor of Multi-organ Failure and Mortality in Medical Intensive Care Patients With Sepsis Requiring Mechanical Ventilation

Clinical Trial Summary

This is an observational study to understand the changes in alveolar dead space in medical critically ill patients with severe infection (severe sepsis) requiring mechanical ventilation and the possibility to predict multi-organ failure. The measurement of alveolar dead space used to require sophisticated equipment and time. New ventilators have microprocessors that allow rapid mathematical calculation with minimal intervention.

Clinical Trial Description

The patient will be followed during their ICU stay up to two weeks while on mechanical ventilation. Patient will be followed daily for the initial 48 hours and then once per week for 2 weeks while mechanically ventilated. ;
