Filter by:The study aims to investigate organ dysfunction and biomarkers in patients with suspected or verified COVID-19 during intensive care at Uppsala University Hospital.
To determine the specific population of critically ill septic patients who benefit most from cytokine adsorption therapy with the HA-380 cartridge. Benefit of the treatment will be assessed on the basis of: - The scope of the effect of cytokine adsorption therapy in this specific population of critically ill patients expressed by cytokine variability within the patients - The scope of cytokine changes in passing the adsorption cartridge my measuring cytokine levels in the patient's blood directly before passing through the cartridge and directly after having passed through the cartridge. - The scope of changes in organ dysfunction expressed by SOFA scores that are repeatedly calculated during the treatment with cytokine adsorption and then daily until day 7 of the ICU treatment. - The scope of changes on cellular function on immune cells in serum samples taken before and after cytokine adsorption therapy. - The scope of removal of anti-infective drugs from the blood in passing through the cytokine adsorption cartridge by measuring antibiotic drug levels in the patients blood during the cytokine adsorption therapy - 30 day and 90 day mortality and location status in survivors
Septic shock is defined as a subset of sepsis with severe metabolism alterations, leading to organ failure. Septic shock is associated with a high mortality, around 40% according to the SEPSIS 3 definition. Metabolic alterations are responsible for lactic acidosis, and results in mitochondrial dysfunction. This study aims at evaluate the impact of exogenous metabolites on restoring mitochondrial function in septic shock patients with lactate acidosis. Mitochondrial metabolism (quantitative analysis, mitochondrial function) in intact Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC) will be isolate and analyse from patients at the early phase of septic shock (admission), at day 2 and 4. Participant's medical history will be recorded: renal and liver metabolism, severity scores and outcomes and the need for supportive care in the intensive care unit (ICU) until 28 days after admission. Furthermore, the investigators will evaluate wether selected metabolites added to the cell culture medium may improve mitochondrial metabolism.
This study evaluates if improvement of renal resistive index when mean arterial pressure increase (at 65 mmHg to 85 mmHg) in early phase of septic shock is predictive of better renal survival.
The trial investigates the effect of cytokine elimination in patients with septic schock and acute renal failure with need for renal replacement therapy on the integrity of cerebrovascular autoregulation. Patients with inclusion criteria were randomly assign in either use of CytoSorb filter integrated in renal replacement therapy versus non additional filter an renal replacement therapy alone. Cerebrovascular autoregulation will be measured with transcranial Doppler ultrasound and correlation with arterial blood pressure.
An observational study on the insulin resistance in sepsis and septic shock patients.
Goals Primary: compare changes in norepinephrine requirements before and after hemoperfusion (HP) treatment. Secondary: demonstrate the decrease in levels of IL-6 , assess the total and individual change of SEQUENTIAL ORGAN FAILURE ASSESSMENT (SOFA), establish the resolution of shock , clearance of lactate , and mortality at discharge from INTENSIVE CARE UNIT (ICU), at 30 and 60 days.
This is a prospective, observational study designed to examine the performance of biomarkers, molecular biological methods and other analysis in blood from patient with suspected sepsis in the Emergency department, as well as identidying novel sepsis endotypes. Around 1500 patients will be enrolled.
Studies have demonstrated that the use of a procalcitonin (PCT)-guided algorithm in combination with clinical judgment was associated with reduced antibiotic use without impacting mortality or treatment failure. Though several studies have evaluated the use of PCT in critically ill patients, there are limited studies that evaluated PCT in patients with cancer and many of the currently available studies have excluded immune-compromised patients. This is a randomized controlled trial that aims to evaluate the impact of a procalcitonin-guided algorithm on antibiotic utilization in critically ill cancer patients with sepsis. In addition, the study aims to evaluate the predictive value of PCT for predicting mortality and positive cultures.
A scientific research to prove the safety and effectiveness of TVS 0 - 4 mmHg as a target of resuscitation using furosemide, to improve Perfused Vessel Density (PVD) > 25 mm / mm2, AKI stage (based on KDIGO criteria), CI > 2.5 cc / min / m2 , prevent the incidence of intubation, reduce the duration of ventilator use <120 hours and reduce the length of ICU stay in patients with septic shock after resuscitation
