Filter by:Recent in vivo studies from others as well as the investigators group demonstrated that volatile anesthetics immunomodulate sepsis and improve outcome. Also, several clinical trials have convincingly shown that application of a volatile anesthetic provides protection in patients undergoing major surgery. Patients with sepsis are intubated and ventilated and therefore need sedation. So far, most ICU centers use intravenously applied sedatives in these patients. In the proposed study, we will switch sedation from an intravenous to a volatile anesthetic for a short period of time to explore if sepsis markers improve within the following 120 hours upon sevoflurane conditioning.
The aim of the work is to investigate the effect of using lidocaine in combination with low dose ketamine in induction of anesthesia for septic shock patients compared to normal dose of ketamine.
Proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors increase LDL receptors by decreasing its degradation. In sepsis the pathogenic substances, endotoxin, lipoteichoic acid, phospholipomannan are the main cause of the ongoing inflammation that causes the severe damage and outcome. these substances are removed from the blood by the LDL receptors. By administering PCSK9 inhibitors to patients with sepsis/septic shock this inflammatory response can be stopped and by doing so improve the patients outcome.
Septic shock is one of the leading causes of death in patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in almost 50% of septic patients and is associated with significant mortality. Progression to the last stage (KDIGO stage 3) of AKI is an important step in the disease, as it usually requires initiation of RRT. Renal biomarkers are unable to accurately identify those patients who will progress to severe AKI (KDIGO 3). However, identification of patients at risk of progression to severe AKI could help the clinician to initiate optimal therapy including RRT. A new urine test, the Nephrocheck⢠corresponding to the product of the urinary concentrations of 2 markers of renal tubule injury (TIMP2 and IGFBP7) has been validated. The Investigator have already performed two previous studies including septic shock patients (AKICHECK and BIOOCHECK). those previous datas will be reanalysed to examine whether the new urinary biomarkers TIMP2 and IGFBP7 can predict progression within 24 hours and 72 hours from mild and moderate (KDIGO 1 or 2) to severe AKI (KDIGO 3) in patients with septic shock. -All the datas required will be collected from two previous studies (AKICHECK and BIOCHECK) performed in 3 centers: Amiens medical ICU, Melun medico surgical ICU and Montpellier Medical ICU.
Septic shock is associated with substantial burden in terms of both mortality and morbidity for survivors of this illness. Pre-clinical sepsis studies suggest that mesenchymal stem (stromal) cells may modulate inflammation, enhance pathogen clearance and tissue repair and reduce death. Our team has completed a Phase I dose escalation and safety clinical trial that evaluated mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in patients with septic shock. The Cellular Immunotherapy for Septic Shock (CISS) trial established that MSCs appear safe and that a randomized controlled trial (RCT) is feasible. Based on these data, the investigators have planned a phase II RCT (CISS2) at several Canadian academic centres which will evaluate safety, signals for clinical efficacy, and continue to examine potential mechanisms of action and biological effects of MSCs in septic shock.
The study measures the plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid concentrations of linezolid in septic shock patients comparing with non-septic shock patients to confirm the impact of septic shock on PK/PD of linezolid.
The main purpose at the early phase of septic shock on the evolution of organ failure judged by the SOFA (Sepsis Organ Failure Assessment score) score on Day 7 (or the day of death or the day of discharge from the intensive care unit if before Day 7) compared to SOFA score observed in patients in the control group. The secondary purpose is to assess the role of heterologous mesenchymal stem cells on the occurrence and duration of failure of each organ and on the mortality at day 28 and day 90. The safety of administration will be also assessed.
Sepsis induces hemostatic disorders due to the exessive or inappropriate activation of inflammation, which could lead either to hypercoagulability or hypocoagulability. It is currently not possible to determine the hemostatic status of a given patient. This instability of hemostatic system is not revealed by classical tests. Thus, a better characterization of hemostatic status could certainly improve patient care. This study aims at characterizing disorders of coagulation and fibrinolysis using "global" tests such as thrombin generation test or coagulolytic test. Furthermore, the association with biological markers of interest (such as microparticles, neutrophil elastase or histones) will be evaluated.
The aim of this study is to assess the causes of death in patients with septic shock in French intensive care units. It is an epidemiologic and descriptive study .
