Filter by: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.
This study sought to evaluate the association of right ventricular systolic dysfunction and 28-day in-hospital mortality in patients with sepsis and septic shock. Prospective cohort study of adult patients admitted at Burapha university hospital from October 1, 2022 through June 30, 2023 for sepsis and septic shock, who had an echocardiogram within 72 hours after admission for evaluating right ventricular systolic function. Right ventricular systolic dysfunction was defned by the American Society of Echocardiography criteria. Outcomes included 28-day in-hospital mortality, maximal blood lactate, length of intensive care unit(ICU) stay and duration of mechanical ventilation.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effect of melatonin on MDA serum, IL-6, IL-8 levels, ANC, and sepsis score in preterm neonates with sepsis. The main question aim to answer : • Does melatonin affect MDA serum, IL-6, IL-8 levels, ANC, and sepsis score in preterm neonates with sepsis? The participants in the treatment group will receive a single dose of oral melatonin 20 mg, meanwhile those the control group will receive placebo. The researchers will compare MDA serum, IL-6, IL-8 levels, ANC, and sepsis score before and after receiving melatonin, whether there are decreases of MDA serum, IL-6, IL-8 levels, ANC and increase of sepsis score
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.
The EMPRESS trial aims to test the two most commonly used antibiotics (meropenem and piperacillin/tazobactam) among intensive care patients with sepsis (blood poisoning), as the safety of these two drugs is unclear in this group of patients.
The primary objective of this study is to establish an IL-6 concentration cutoff and optimal time point(s) for using Symphony IL-6 that predict 28-day mortality in patients who are admitted or are intended to be admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) diagnosed with sepsis or septic shock.
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 the second leading cause of maternal death in the U.S. For racial and ethnic minoritized birthing people, especially those who are Black, living in poverty, and from underserved communities, labor and postpartum are particularly vulnerable risk periods. The goal of this multi-center, multidisciplinary observational study is to establish a novel maternal care continuity model to reduce sepsis- related death and disability and increase maternal health equity.
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).
