Filter by:Historically, CKRT and hemodialysis were performed in small infants and newborns with devices developed for adults with high rates of complications and mortality. We aim to retrospectively report the first multicenter French experience of CARPEDIEM® use and evaluate the efficacy, feasibility, outcomes, and technical considerations of this new device in a population of neonates and small infant. Compared to adult's device continuous renal replacement therapy with an adapted machine allowed successful blood purification without severe complications even in low birth weight neonates.
The impact of deploying artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare settings in unclear, in particular with regards to how it will influence human decision makers. Previous research demonstrated that AI alerts were frequently ignored (Kamal et al., 2020 ) or could lead to unexpected behaviour with worsening of patient outcomes (Wilson et al., 2021 ). On the other hand, excessive confidence and trust placed in the AI could have several adverse consequences including ability to detect harmful AI decisions, leading to patient harm as well as human deskilling. Some of these aspects relate to automation bias. In this simulation study, the investigators intend to measure whether medical decisions in areas of high clinical uncertainty are modified by the use of an AI-based clinical decision support tool. How the dose of intravenous fluids (IVF) and vasopressors administered by doctors in adult patients with sepsis (severe infection with organ failure) in the ICU), changes as a result of disclosing the doses suggested by a hypothetical AI will be measured. The area of sepsis resuscitation is poorly codified, with high uncertainty leading to high variability in practice. This study will not specifically mention the AI Clinician (Komorowski et al., 2018). Instead, the investigators will describe a hypothetical AI for which there is some evidence of effectiveness on retrospective data in another clinical setting (e.g. a model that was retrospectively validated using data from a different country than the source data used for model training) but no prospective evidence of effectiveness or safety. As such, it is possible for this hypothetical AI to provide unsafe suggestions. The investigators will intentionally introduce unsafe AI suggestions (in random order), to measure the sensitivity of our participants at detecting these.
Cluster randomized controlled trial comparing two bathing strategies in critically ill patients. The intervention group will receive daily bathing with chlorhexidine. The control group will receive usual care.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the real-time performance of a new host response test (SeptiCyte RAPID) for differentiating sepsis from non-infection/systemic inflammatory response syndrome among patients suspected of sepsis within the first 24 hours of intensive care unit (ICU) admission.
To assess the effect of probiotics on cytokine's level(interleukin 6 and Transforming growth factor-β1)in children admitted to PICU with sepsis.
The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of early targeted antibiotic therapy in patients with sepsis and septic shock using the new biomarker Sirtuin 1 and PCR for bacterial resistance detection. The primary outcome is change in SOFA score (ΔSOFA) which will be calculated by subtracting the final SOFA score and sirtuin 1 level at 5 days from the corresponding initial value at enrollment. Secondary outcomes included mortality rates, ventilator free days and length of icu stay.
The investigators evaluated the electroencephalographic pattern by the Sinek and Young scales during ICU stay and its correlation with cognitive impairment determined by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA) in septic patients after 3 months of ICU discharge..
This study aimed to enroll 2000 neonatal patients with suspected sepsis or clinical diagnosed sepsis. These patients will undergo both conventional methods and metagenomics sequencing to detect the pathogenic microorganisms of sepsis. The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical value of metagenomics sequencing for the diagnosis and treatment of neonatal sepsis.
Investigators will conduct a pragmatic randomized trial to investigate the non-inferiority of restricted use of invasive arterial lines compared to standard arterial line use.
Medical and socioeconomic data are extracted from the Swedish Intensive Care Registry (SIR), the Swedish National Patient Registry and Statistics Sweden for all adult patients admitted to in Swedish intensive care units between 2014-01-01 and 2020-12-31 with a diagnosis of sepsis and/or acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and/or coronavirus 19 (COVID-19) infection, and registered in SIR. The impact of demographic and socioeconomic factors on decisions to withhold or withdraw intensive care, and on mortality, are studied and statistically adjusted for level of chronic comorbidity and severity of acute illness.
