Filter by:It is an epidemiology study to explore outcomes in patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) and sepsis submitted to continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) with Oxiris™. Objectives: Describe the experience and outcomes in patients with sepsis and AKI treated receiving CRRT with the adsorption membrane filter Oxiris™
In July 2020, a bundle (Appendix C) was implemented at Methodist Dallas Medical Center where all patients with SAB were reviewed by the antimicrobial stewardship pharmacist (Monday - Friday from 0700 to 1500), a note outlining optimal interventions was written in the electronic medical record (EMR), and the recommendations were communicated to the primary team via secure messaging or telephone
Toxicosis often leads to multiple organ failure (MODS), with the kidney being the primary target organ due to its sensitivity to infection and ischemia. The kidney's vulnerability makes it a potential early indicator of organ failure, implying that further organ failure may occur later, thereby increasing the risk of patient mortality. Several studies conducted on sepsis patients in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) have revealed that 40.32% of sepsis patients experienced complications with acute kidney injury (AKI), and the case fatality rate could rise to 70% once AKI occurred. The Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) scale is commonly used as a diagnostic criterion for AKI. However, the kidney's robust reserve function poses a challenge for early identification, diagnosis, and intervention of AKI since significant increases in creatinine levels and a sharp decrease in urine volume already indicate severe kidney damage. This situation calls for the development of alternative methods. In our previous study, we discovered a strong correlation between urinary oxygen partial pressure and renal organ function impairment in children with sepsis. Building upon traditional biochemical indicators such as blood lactic acid levels, we will incorporate non-invasive tests like urine partial pressure of oxygen, renal ultrasound, and cardiac ultrasound, as well as novel markers like KIM-1, to establish a model for early recognition and assessment of kidney damage in children with sepsis. By utilizing commonly used biomarkers and the precise effects of urinary oxygen partial pressure, we aim to improve early identification and accurate intervention evaluation for pediatric sepsis kidney injury. This research will provide a crucial foundation for the development of early warning systems, diagnostic guidelines, and treatment protocols for pediatric sepsis kidney injury.
Using our own patient data, our study aimed to predict mortality that can develop in Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacilli bloodstream infections with a machine learning-based model. In the intensive care unit, patients with bloodstream infections, both with and without mortality, will be examined retrospectively in two subgroups for comparison.
This study aims to emulate a hypothetical target pragmatic multi-center, non-blinded trial of adult inpatients in the PINC AITM dataset with B-lactam treated culture confirmed monomicrobial invasive Group A streptococcus (GAS) between the years 2015-2021
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-parallel intervention clinical study that will include approximately 38 healthy subjects based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Subjects will be assigned to one of four different dosage cohorts. Subjects in each cohort will randomly be given experimental drug or a placebo.
The aim of this study is to examine the effect of ethanol (70%) as lock-solution after hemodialysis on: - The frequency of dialysis catheter-related bacteremia among patients under observation of potential complications - Other complications of the use of hemodialysis-catheters eg. dysfunction of the catheter due to thrombosis.
Clinical and animal studies have found that sepsis can lead to a serious imbalance in the gut microecology, a reduction in probiotics, a reduction in short-chain fatty acid, a reduction in bone mass, and an increase in bone destruction, maintaining the stability of microecology can be one of the effective means of bone protection. But at present, the treatment of sepsis with early supplementation of probiotics is still controversial, and dietary fiber intake has significantly changed the composition of the microbiota, it may be a safe and effective method to prevent bone loss in sepsis. Further study on it will provide reliable theoretical basis and intervention target for early, safe and effective prevention of osteoporosis.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) profile and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of TIN816 in hospitalized adult participants in an intensive care setting with a diagnosis of sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI).
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.
