Filter by:A comprehensive strategy will be used to investigate the relationship and correlation between 4 diagnostically significant markers relevant for early diagnosis and prediction of complications and death in the development of sepsis in children (C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, presepsin and lipopolysaccharide binding protein). For the first time, an attempt will be made to assess the genetic characteristics of the patient's from the point of view of predisposition to the unfavorable development of the sepsis based on the study of polymorphism of a number of genes of the immune system (tumor necrosis factor beta; interleukin 6, 8, 10; lymphotoxin alpha, etc.). Based on the study results, an algorithm to predict the unfavorable course of sepsis in children will be developed using a comprehensive assessment of biochemical and molecular genetic markers.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is an independent risk factor for death that affects 10-15% of hospitalized patients and more than 50% of patients admitted to the intensive care unit. Sepsis is the most frequent cause of AKI, affecting 48 million people worldwide every year, and accounting for approximately 11 million of annual global deaths. Despite these figures, there are no known therapies to prevent or reverse septic AKI; hence this study aims to establish the safety and feasibility of the implementation of metformin in the treatment of AKI in patients with sepsis. This study is the first critical step to inform the design of a future, full-scale efficacy randomized clinical trial.
The anesthetic efficacy and safety of continuous spinal anesthesia and comparing it with general anesthesia technique in sepsis diagnosed patient.
The study will enhance the theory in the frame of reference on the efficacy of Ulinastatin while managing sepsis and subsequent morbidity and mortality. Moreover, the present study will explore Ulinastatin's prophylactic role in progression of multiple organ dysfunctions. Furthermore, the study will have the clinical implications in predicting the ICU admitted patient's stay and related cost in the context of new drug. Current researches will explore the new dimensions in Pakistan's healthcare facilities, paving the way of future academics to analyze it in order to enhance healthcare outcomes.
Sepsis, a life-threatening syndrome, is often accompanied by tachycardia in spite of adequate volume resuscitation to correct hypovolemia and vasopressor medication to correct hypotension. Recently, relevant studies have shown that sustained tachycardia in sepsis was also related to high mortality, and appropriate control of heart rate could improve prognosis. Ivabradine reduces heart rate directly without a negative inotropic effect through inhibition of the If ionic current,which is absent from the traditional rate control drug (beta-blockers). This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, open label study designed to compare ivabradine with placebo on the difference of heart rate and haemodynamics in patients with sepsis.
Sepsis is defined as a life-threatening organ dysfunction that is caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Severe sepsis is the most common cause of death among critically ill patients in non-coronary intensive care units (ICU). Sustained excessive inflammation and immune dysfunction have been confirmed to play a key role in organ damage and early death of sepsis patients. Therefore, it is important to reduce excessive inflammatory response mediated by immune cells and pro-inflammatory cytokines in the acute phase of sepsis. Single-cell RNA sequencing performed on both septic patients and mice suggest that changes in Tcm (CD3+ CD8+ CD44+ CD127+ CD62L+) and Tem (CD3+ CD8+ CD44+ CD127+ CD62L -) in the acute phase of sepsis may play an important role in sepsis. In addition, animal researches showed that Tcm and Tem decreased decreased continuously at 24, 48 and 72h after cecal ligation and perforation (CLP) in mice, and the adoptive transfer of Tcm , sorting from spleen of mice 24h after CLP , but not Tem improved 7-day survival rate of sepsis mice. This observational study is aimed to investigate the quantity and proliferation of Tcm and Tem in the acute phase of sepsis and their correlation with severity level and mortality of septic patients in ICU.
This study will evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of ceftobiprole in term and pre-term newborn babies and infants up to 3 months of age with late-onset sepsis (LOS). Ceftobiprole is an antibiotic which belongs to a group of medicines called 'cephalosporin antibiotics'. It is approved for its use to treat adults and children with pneumonia in many European and non-European countries.
Sepsis-associated brain dysfunction (SABD)with increased intracranial pressure is a complex pathology that can lead to unfavourable outcome. Although direct measurement of intracranial pressure using an intra-ventricular catheter remains the gold standard, it is burdened with potential serious complications due to its invasiveness. Ultrasonic measurement of optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) is a non-invasive method for ICP monitoring. Screening for SABD is crucial for early diagnosis and management, measurement of ONSD can detect elevated intracranial pressure in septic patients. Intracranial hypertension in septic patients might be a sign of SABD. Using ONSD for SABD screening requires further research. So, we hypothesized that ONSD could be used as an objective screening tool to predict and early diagnose SABD in adult septic patients.
Aim of the study is to determine the diagnostic accuracy of point-of-care ultrasound and to determine its role in sepsis management .
Investigators propose a comprehensive management program for postpartum patients with HDP who are at risk for severe maternal morbidity and mortality. Our program will emphasize three key components: 1) self-monitoring of blood pressures with app-based reporting connected to our electronic health record, 2) blood pressure management directed by a program navigator with guideline and physician support and 3) facilitated transitions of care to primary care clinicians for hypertension management. Investigators will randomize 300 patents with HDP on postpartum day one with follow up through 3 months postpartum. Primary outcome will be blood pressure reporting at 7-10 postpartum. Secondary outcomes include blood pressure control at 7-10 days postpartum, identification and treatment of severe blood pressures, severe maternal morbidity, hospital readmission, triage visits for hypertension, postpartum and primary care visit attendance, and multiple patient-reported outcome measures. All outcomes will be stratified by race (Black and non-Black) to evaluate disparities and by tight versus usual blood pressure control to evaluate the impact of strict postpartum blood pressure control on outcomes. Investigators hypothesize that a comprehensive postpartum HDP management program will improve hypertension control for all patients and reduce disparities that affect Black patients, and that stricter blood pressure control will be associated with fewer adverse outcomes.
