Filter by:This is a randomized double-blind controlled study with the primary aim of scientifically evaluating the potential effects of paracetamol and ibuprofen in the management of sepsis by comparing their fever-reducing efficacy in septic patients. Sepsis is recognized as a severe form of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) characterized by organ dysfunction resulting from severe infections. This study aims to address a significant aspect of fever management in septic patients by objectively assessing the fever-reducing potential of paracetamol and ibuprofen.
the investigators' preliminary data revealed that early physical therapy in patients with sepsis in ICU could promote recovery of function (liver and kidney) and decrease the length of stay in hospitalization. The levels of plasma IL-6 and IL-10 were higher in non-survival group than in survival group. the investigators hypothesize that myokines and body composition parameters are related to the prognosis of sepsis.the investigators will investigate the influences of duration and intensity of early mobilization on myokines, body composition and outcomes of septic patients in intensive care. The proposed study can help precision medicine in the future.
The goal of this observational study is to determine the value of CRP/Albumin Ratio as an inflammatory marker for predicting the development of postoperative Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome and/or Sepsis in polytraumatized patients admitted to Intensive care unit. The main question it aims to answer is whether CRP/Albumin Ratio can be used as predictive inflammatory marker for postoperative Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome and/or Sepsis or not.
Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) are an urgent global public health problem. Patients who were infected caused by CRE bloodstream infection were high mortality up to 40%. The National Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Center, Thailand (NARST) reported CRE increased from 1.1% to 17.9%. For carbapenemase producing CRE in Thailand was reported blaNDM 47.33%, blaOXA-48 43.33% and blaNDM+blaOXA-48 6.67%. Tigecycline (TGC) was a glycylcyclines antibiotics. High dose tigecycline (HD-TGC) loading dose 200 mg then TGC 100 mg q 12 h via intravenous improve clinical cure in critically ill patients and reduce mortality in carbapenem resistance Klebsiella pneumoniae bloodstream infection compared with standard dose therapy. TGC has susceptibility to CR-KP 79.6% and has an activity to blaNDM, blaKPC and blaOXA-48 carbapenemase producing CRE. However, TGC has clearance (CL) 0.2-0.3 L/h/kg, and high volume of distribution (vd) 2.8-13 L/kg resulted in low levels of TGC in plasma. Moreover, the pharmacokinetics of TGC in critically ill was limited and inconsistent with the previous study. Now pharmacokinetics-pharmacodynamics index (PK/PD index) of TGC for CRE bloodstream infection was not reported. This study aims to study the population pharmacokinetic and PK-PD index of TGC in patients who were CRE bloodstream infection to increase the success rate of treatment.
The overall objective of this prospective observational study is to address the significant knowledge gap that exists around the impact of immune dysfunction on the development and survival from sepsis in patients with cancer. This proposal primarily focuses on establishing the transcriptomic immune profiles of sepsis patients with a background of cancer. This analysis will be complemented with in vitro functional analyses, and in addition will commence a collection of genome-wide data, including a focus on predicting white cell number and function in health. Uniquely, the investigators propose to establish a robust link between these analyses: transcriptomic, in vitro, and genome-wide, to enable them to comprehensively explore septic oncology patient 'immune phenotypes' and effectively identify novel exploitable therapeutic pathways. To this end, this project will collect, analyse and/or sequence DNA, RNA, leukocytes and soluble materials from a cohort of oncology patients presenting to intensive care with sepsis. This cohort will include all-comers with an oncological background but will also focus on two core groups at high risk of sepsis where baseline samples can also be sought prior to major immunosuppressive events in the cancer pathway. These are: 1. Oesophageal/upper gastrointestinal (GI) cancer patients prior to systemic anticancer therapy initiation or surgery 2. Haematological malignancy patients prior to stem cell transplantation. These sub-cohorts will provide a previously unexplored unique insight into the role of pre-existing patient transcriptomic phenotypes.
This study was an ambispective observational cohort study that included sepsis patients hospitalized in the Intensive care unit (ICU) of the Nankai Hospital. All patients met the consensus criteria of sepsis-3. The purpose of this study is to investigate the valuable biomarkers for the severity of sepsis and predictors of 30-day mortality for patients with sepsis.
The research endeavors to examine the critical composition of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFAs) in premature infants across different gestational stages and under varying disease conditions, and delineate the metabolic attributes of PUFAs in premature infants and their interplay with the onset of diseases. This study anticipates furnishing a theoretical foundation for the rationalization of PUFAs supplementation in premature infants and for informing strategies related to disease prevention and management.
Rapid identification of pathogens and early warning of host response are key to improve the prognosis of sepsis. Establishing a comprehensive identification system based on pathogen identification and host immune status is an effective way to achieve early warning stratification of patients with infections in the emergency department. This prospective multicenter clinical study will combine droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) and transcriptomic molecular target assay for validation in patients with suspected sepsis in the emergency department. The purpose is to (1) compare the efficacy of ddPCR with blood culture for early diagnosis and prognosis; (2) assess the diagnostic value of transcriptomic molecular targets based on 29 messenger RNA for the presence or absence of infection as well as infectious agents, and to evaluate their efficacy for prognosis; and (3) assess the diagnostic and therapeutic monitoring value of ddPCR combined with transcriptome analysis methods.
The impact of the complex liver immunological network on sepsis outcome is largely unknown. Steatotic liver disease (SLD) is the most common chronic liver disease with prevalence of 25% in European countries. The question remains whether patients with SLD are more prone to bacterial infections and what is the impact of persistent liver inflammation to the systemic response to infection, sepsis course and outcomes. Semaphorins are a large family of secreted and membrane-bound biological response modifiers present in many organ systems that are associated with SLD and development of fibrosis, but also might regulate systemic immune responses in sepsis. This study will investigate the association of semaphorins with sepsis outcomes in patients with SLD.
The objective of this study is to assess the relationship between infusion system colonization (ramps or multi-lumen devices) and the occurrence of CVC infection/colonization. This study is a prospective observational research that does not modify usual patient care. Its objective is to evaluate the relationship between infusion tubing colonization and the occurrence of central venous catheter colonization. The only additional intervention is swabbing the taps at each IV line ramp at systematic ramp changes (done every 4 days) and at catheter removal. For the multi-lumen device, swabbing is only performed upon catheter removal at the level of the one-way valves. After catheter removal, a flush (1 mL of 0.9% NaCl) of the midline is performed and cultured to assess for endoluminal colonization. The distal end of the CVC is sent for culture, following the usual practice of the department to monitor catheter colonization and infections. The primary outcome measure is the proportion of colonized infusion systems based on the culture of the CVC. The secondary objectives are to describe factors associated with CVC infections, to determine the incidence of colonization and infections in different locations of central venous catheters, to analyze the bacterial ecology based on the type of infusion system used, and to evaluate the ecological and economic impact of different devices (ramps vs. multi-lumen devices). The secondary outcome measures are as follows: Proportion of colonized infusion systems based on the colonization status of the CVC and the type of infusion system (ramps vs. multi-lumen devices) Proportion of colonized infusion systems based on the infection status of the CVC and the type of infusion system (ramps vs. multi-lumen devices) Duration of antibiotic treatment Weight of compounds used with each infusion system over the duration of CVC placement (ramps vs. multi-lumen devices) Calculation of material costs based on the infusion system used over the duration of CVC placement (ramps vs. multi-lumen devices)
