Filter by:SQ53 is a novel antimicrobial, sporicidal solution that is based on a platform of quaternary ammonium chloride compounds. It has been tested against a wide range of bacteria, viruses, spores and fungal pathogens. Extensive laboratory testing has demonstrated the effectiveness of SQ53 impregnated wipes in cleaning surfaces including catheters over a 24 hour plus time period. SQ53 also received an in vitro evaluation of the irritancy potential using a tissue engineered human skin model and was found to have no potential for skin irritation. SQ53 is available as a sterilized pack with a single wipe inside. The pack is easy to open by tearing off the top end and presenting the contents to the operator to remove under sterile conditions. The current study will be a randomized single-blinded placebo-controlled clinical trial for SQ53 wipes intended for catheter cleaning in patients receiving home parenteral nutrition.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that addition of the Monocyte Width Distribution (MDW) parameter to current standard of care improves a clinician's ability to recognize sepsis in the Emergency Department, resulting in earlier decision to administer antibiotics from time of ED presentation for sepsis patients (simulated primary endpoint), with concomitant reductions in length of stay and in-hospital mortality for those patients (secondary endpoints).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential for MDW and other CPD parameters (measured with CBC-DIFF) to identify COVID-19 diseased adult individuals presenting to the hospital with symptoms suggestive of COVID-19 or respiratory infection and whose standard of care includes CBC-DIFF and microbial testing.

Abionic SA has developed a novel point-of-care (POC) platform, the abioSCOPE, and an in vitro diagnostic kit for the quantification of the pancreatic stone protein (PSP) to be analyzed specifically with the abioSCOPE® device. This test is intended to be used to aid in the early recognition of sepsis. The test is extremely easy to use and has a total turnaround time of approximately 8 minutes. This test uses only 30 microliters of K2/K3-EDTA anticoagulated whole blood or plasma. Results are quantitative (ng/ml). The product is for Investigational Use Only in the US and bears CE-marking. It is commercially available in selected European and non-European countries. The test has also been clinically validated in a multicentric, prospective, observational study performed (AB-PSP-001, clinicaltrials.gov identifier NCT03474809). The main goals of this study are to evaluate certain analytical performances components of this product in a point-of-care environment, in particular the precision, sample type comparability and specimen stability of the product. Such data will support regulatory filing of a US FDA 510(k) premarket notification file and of a European IVD Regulation technical file to continue product commercialization in 2022, when this novel regulation will be effective.
The aim of this trial is to evaluate the effect of high-dose glucocorticoid on inflammatory response and recovery after emergency laparotomy in participants with intestinal obstruction and perforated viscus. Primary outcome is the reduction of C-reactive protein on postoperative day 1. Secondary outcomes are organ specific complications in the post anaesthesia phase, endothel and inflammatory markers, fluid status, preload dependency, pain, lung function, nausea and mobilization during the first 5 days after surgery, . The investigators hypothesize, that a preoperative single high dose of glucocorticoid reduces systemic inflammatory response after emergency laparotomy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of high-dose ascorbic acid on microcirculation in sepsis.
This study aims to evaluate sepsis biomarkers as soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (sTREM-1) and soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (sUPAR) in diagnosis of sepsis in comparison to the traditional blood culture and C-reactive protein (CRP) and to evaluate the prognostic value of these biomarkers in comparison to sequential organ failure assessment score (SOFA score), Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II ( APACHI score), 28 day mortality.
This study an open label prospective observational cohort study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sodium citrate 4% locking solution in preventing central line associated blood stream infection in children requiring long term central venous catheters for home parenteral nutrition. Sodium citrate 4% is FDA-approved for dialysis catheters, but has not been formally evaluated for use in tunneled catheters for parenteral nutrition. The rate of central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI) and other potential adverse events will be monitored for 12 months, with the option to remain in the study for a longer period of time.
The purpose of the study is to characterize various healthcare practitioners' perspectives on implementation of beta-lactam therapeutic drug monitoring in critical care practice.
