Filter by:The norepinephrine and vasopressin for rescue versus early vasopressin for vasopressor dependent sepsis (NoVa) is a phase 3, multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled trial comparing an early vasopressin initiation strategy versus norepinephrine plus vasopressin initiation only as a rescue strategy for hemodynamic management of critically ill patients with vasopressor dependent sepsis.
Non-COVID-19 sepsis (Sepsis) has always been one of the common diseases in critically ill patients. The main treatment strategy is to kill pathogens and mitigate hyperinflammation. One study demonstrated that the supplementation with 576,000 IU cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) as a single dose in critically ill adults in the medical intensive care units (MICUs) can improve clinical outcomes, including acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II score (APACHE II), sequential organ failure assessment score (SOFA), and C-reactive protein (CRP). It is a three-year, multi-center, prospective, parallel, double-blind, randomized controlled clinical trial for 240 eligible subjects, with administrations of vitamin D3 576,000 IU or placebo every 24 hours for 3 days (72 hours) within 96 hours after intensive care unit (ICU) admission.
Sepsis is a multifactorial syndrome characterized by a dynamic course and a clinical outcome dependent on several factors, and responsible for one in five deaths worldwide. The aim of this trial is to identify new prognostic markers for the progression of sepsis to septic shock, by comparing epigenetic markers between patients who have or have not developed severe forms of sepsis. The main objective of this preliminary study is to identify prognostic markers for the progression of sepsis to septic shock, i.e. to compare targeted markers between subjects with sepsis who progress to septic shock versus subjects with sepsis who do not progress to septic shock.
Sepsis remains a global scourge. Before the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, the World Health Organization estimated approximately 49 million cases annually, resulting in 11 million deaths. Defined by dysregulated host response to infection, sepsis leads to vital organ failure. Renal dysfunction affects about half of ICU patients, necessitating extracorporeal renal replacement therapy in approximately 10% of cases, alongside coagulation system involvement typified by thrombocytopenia. Immunothrombotic phenomena are pivotal in sepsis pathophysiology, activating coagulation and disrupting immune responses. Microcirculatory impairment, mediated by neutrophils, monocytes, and platelets, worsens vital organ perfusion. Excessive production of Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) is implicated in microcirculatory compromise during sepsis.
PALETTE is a perpetual adaptive platform to efficiently study sepsis interventions within 'treatable traits' in all-ages patients enabling prompt evaluation of pandemic treatments. Treatable traits, therapeutic targets identified by phenotypes or endotypes (defined by biological mechanism or by treatment response) through validated biomarkers (measurable characteristic reflecting normal or pathogenic processes, or treatment responses), may include multi-omics, cellular, immune, metabolic, endocrine features, or intelligent algorithms. PALETTE Bayesian adaptive design enables parallel investigations of multiple interventions for sepsis, and quick inclusion of pandemic pathogens. PALETTE's new conceptual model will respond to the challenges of standard approaches, i.e. series of sepsis trials, each investigating one or two interventions, expensive, time consuming, and inappropriate in pandemic context.
The purpose of this study is to characterize organ dysfunction change in acute necrotizing pancreatitis patients with sepsis after open necrosectomy.
In order to evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic value of thrombin-antithrombin complex（TAT）, α2-plasmin inhibitor-plasmin complex（PIC）, tissue plasminogen activator-inhibitor complex（tPAI·C） and thrombomodulin（TM） in sepsis-induced coagulopathy(SIC), hospitalized patients with sepsis were prospectively included. Plasma TAT, PIC, tPAI·C,TM levels within 24 h after sepsis diagnosis were detected by MCL60 chemiluminescence analyzer. According to the SIC score (≥4), they were divided into SIC group and non-SIC group, and ROC curve analysis was performed according to the biomarker test results.
Preterm infants are born at less than 37 weeks of pregnancy. Sometimes a break or tear in the fluid filled bag that surrounds and protects the infant during pregnancy leads to an untimely birth. This state puts the infant at risk of serious condition called sepsis. Sepsis is a condition in which body responds inappropriately to an infection. Sepsis may progress to septic shock which can result in the loss of life. Doctors give antibiotics to treat sepsis. The goal of this research study is to find out: 1. Among neonates at risk of early-onset neonatal sepsis, whether a policy of administering antibiotics selectively to a subset of at-risk infants who later develop signs of sepsis is not inferior to administering antibiotics to all at-risk infants in the 1st week of life. 2. To find out if infants receiving selective antibiotics (as above) compared to those receiving antibiotics from birth (as above) require fewer antibiotic courses of 48 hours duration or more in the 1st week of life. 3. To find out whether infants receiving selective antibiotics (as above) compared to those receiving antibiotics from birth (as above) are significantly different with respect to a wide range of secondary outcomes (listed under "Outcomes").
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the safety and efficacy of nafamostat mesylate (NM) and unfractionated heparin (UFH) in the process of renal replacement therapy (RRT) for patients suffering from sepsis associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI). The main questions it aims to answer are: The impact of NM and UFH on platelet count in septic patients undergoing RRT treatment. The satisfaction with anticoagulation of NM and UFH in septic patients undergoing RRT treatment. The 28-day all-cause mortality rate of septic patients undergoing RRT treatment with NM and UFH. Researchers will use NM or UFH as anticoagulation during RRT in SA-AKI patients, assessing effects on platelet count, anticoagulation satisfaction, and mortality. Participants will receive NM or UFH as anticoagulation during RRT for a minimum of 7 days. Bleeding symptoms, platelet count and coagulation function will be monitored daily. Platelet changes during the 7-day treatment period and survival status at 28 days post-treatment will be recorded.
Renal perfusion and neutrophil-mediated inflammation will be assessed in the kidney in sepsis patients with acute kidney injury using positron emission tomography. For marked water will be used for renal perfusion and a newly developed PET tracer molecule (11C-GW457427) with specific binding to neutrophil elastase which provides a measure of the amount of infiltrating neutrophils in the renal parenchyma for inflammation. The study is performed in a PET-CT camera where anatomical imaging takes place at the same time as the PET examinations.
