Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of ReliZORB improves nutrition tolerance and helps critically ill patients meet their nutrition goals. Subjects in the intensive care unit will be enrolled and randomized 2:1 to receive ReliZORB or placebo cartridges with enteral feedings for 5 days. Blood and stool samples will be collected to test for nutrition and inflammation.
Sepsis is a clinical entity that complicates infection. Without early recognition and timely management, it can rapidly progress to severe sepsis, septic shock, and culminate in multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. Forty to 70% of septic patients have low vitamin D status, yet little is known about the impact of vitamin D3 (vitD3) supplementation in this patient population. As such, the investigators propose a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial to test the hypothesis that early, rapid correction of low vitamin D status, as an adjunct to established treatment guidelines, will improve clinical outcomes and measurably alter immune profile in patients with severe sepsis.
Study of the kinetics of uremic toxins in the ICU patients with acute renal failure, in order to optimize the dialysis dose: patients with sepsis/multi-organ failure. The sampling of blood and dialysate will be done during dialyses with different durations (4, 6 and 8h)
