Filter by:This is a single-center retrospective study conducted at Mercy hospital, aiming to investigate the correlation between changes in hemoglobin (Hb) levels and the volume of vascular refill administered during the first 48 hours.
The goal of this prospective observational study is to develop and utilize an Artificial Intelligence (AI) model for the prediction of postoperative sepsis in patients undergoing abdominal surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Can a remote AI-driven monitoring system accurately predict sepsis risk in postoperative patients? 2. How effectively can this system integrate and analyze multimodal data for early sepsis detection in the surgical ward? Participants are equipped with non-invasive PPG-based wearable devices to continuously monitor vital signs and collect high-quality clinical data. This data, along with demographic and laboratory information from the Electronic Health Record (EHR) of the hospital, are used for AI model development and validation.
Sepsis is a disruption of homeostasis in the human body in response to bloodstream infection and is associated with a high risk of mortality. Worldwide, sepsis is affecting approximately 30 million people and resulting in six million deaths. Blood culture is a specific blood sample used to identifying microbial agent (bacterium or yeast) and determine the sensitivity of these microorganisms to antibiotics and antifungals. Any delay in identifying the microorganism and/or determining the AST (antibiotic susceptibility testing) has a direct impact on the administration of appropriate antibiotic treatment and, consequently, on mortality of the patient. The faster the diagnosis, the faster the antibiotic treatment will be adapted, the higher the survival rate/probability of patients, and the lower the ecological impact. In routine, clinical microbiology laboratories currently use 2 automatized techniques: MALDI-TOF MS® for microorganisms identification and VITEK2® method for AST determination. Based on a proteomic approach, the IDBIORIV method is a rapid method (90 minutes) in comparison of current methods (24/48 hours) able to identifying a large panel of 113 pathogens and determine the antibiotic resistance profile of 49 species for 4 classes of antibiotics (Beta-lactams, Aminosides, Glycopeptides, Colistin). The main objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of the IDBIORIV method in pathogen identification and antibiotic susceptibility testing in comparison with current methods of analysis of positive blood cultures used at the microbiology laboratory of the Hospices Civils de Lyon, in a real clinical situation, over a 2-year period.
Objective of the study is to compare the efficacy and safety of 'Short duration antibiotic' (72hrs) and 'Standard duration antibiotic'(5 - 7days) in preterm neonates ( >28weeks and >1000grams ) with culture negative early onset sepsis.
This is a prospective observational cohort study of platelet phenotype in pregnant patients at high-risk for the development preeclampsia. Blood samples will be collected prior to the initiation of daily aspirin and again in the second trimester to evaluate for platelet changes during pregnancy in patient's as a result of aspirin use and their association with adverse perinatal outcomes.
For the treatment of numerous biliary and pancreatic problems, the procedure known as endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is regarded as a crucial therapeutic intervention. However, ERCP is known to be connected to a variety of issues, including post-ERCP sepsis. This study's goal is to investigate the relationship between unexplained hypotension during or just after surgery and the emergence of sepsis after ERCP.
Objectives: 1. To compare the immune response of patients with or without sepsis presenting to the ED with a(n) (suspected) infection. 2. To determine immune response aberrations that are associated with an increased risk of developing sepsis in patients presenting to the ED with a(n) (suspected) infection without sepsis. 3. To determine the long term cognitive and physical sequelae of sepsis after admission.
Sepsis is an extremely common systemic condition in the Emergency Room (ER), which is found to be to be one of the leading causes of death among patients accessing the ER. To date, the diagnosis of sepsis does not rely on any specific markers for infectious conditions, but several methods of assessing the general condition of the patient, namely markers that elevate in a variety of inflammatory conditions (PCR, PCT), indices of tissue hypoxia (serum lactate), and scores based on the haemochromocytometric examination, the markers of function of different organs, and vital parameters expressed by the patient at the time of assessment (SOFA, qSOFA, SIRS, NEWS). These markers, in addition to not be specific for sepsis, have an insufficiently early peak of presentation to readily identify all patients presenting with this condition. Presepsin, as the N-terminal portion of the soluble component of Cluster of Differentiation 14 (CD14), is elevated almost exclusively in infectious conditions; moreover, its elevation in infectious contexts is extremely early compared with that of markers already in use, allowing early identification of septic patients who to date would be recognized as such only hours after the onset of the septic process. In addition, the determination of this biomarker could make it possible to stratify patients by prognosis, allowing greater attention to be paid to the most severe patients. It is hypothesized that the Presepsin assay in emergency room will allow to increase the rapidity and specificity of sepsis diagnosis compared with the diagnostic procedure currently used, improving the outcomes of patients accessing the emergency room with symptoms suggestive of sepsis. The main purpose of the present study is to evaluate the role of serum assay of presepsin in the early diagnosis of sepsis in patients presenting to the emergency department with clinical suspicion of sepsis by comparing the values obtained with traditionally used such as PCR, PCT, and blood culture. The secondary objective is to evaluate presepsin as a prognostic biomarker and useful for mortality risk stratification of the same patients, comparing the values obtained with validated predictor scores of mortality and/or severity (APACHEII, SOFA, qSOFA).
Current study evaluates the relationship between cell immunity, biochemical and genetic markers in patients with sepsis in order to develop algorithm for predicting the course and outcome of severe bacterial infections.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate Fetal Medicine Foundation's pre-eclampsia risk calculator using maternal characteristics, first trimester serum placental growth factor (PlGF) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) in a Finnish general population.
