Filter by: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.
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.
Sepsis is an organ dysfunction syndrome caused by the host's immune response to infection, and is one of the common critical illnesses. However, sepsis remains the main threat to global health. Due to the high heterogeneity, the diagnosis of sepsis is difficult, and it is particularly important to find biomarkers that can predict changes in the patient's condition and prognosis. The purpose of this study is to collect patient blood samples for testing and identify biomarkers related to the prognosis of sepsis.
The aim of our study is to compare between transcranial doppler pulsatility index and mean arterial blood pressure in guiding management of sepsis induced encephalopathy.
The management of septic states includes, in addition to the specific treatment (antimicrobials and eradication of the source), a restoration of the hemodynamic disorders and assistance of the failing organs. In general, the restoration of hemodynamic disorders begins first with volume expansion, followed by the use of Noepinephrine (NE) when the target mean arterial pressure (MAP) is not reached after optimizing the intravascular volume. Recently, several studies have supported the interest of early NE on MAP, cardiac output and mortality. It is therefore tempting to restrict fluid administration even in the initial phase of hemodynamic management of severe sepsis by starting NE earlier.
Single-center, retrospective observational study to evaluate the implementation of early molecular diagnosis of sepsis using SeptiCyte and BCID2 in 120 critically ill patients with suspected sepsis without clear focus and requiring antimicrobial treatment. The main objective is to evaluate the performance of these molecular techniques with respect to routine clinical practice and their impact on the optimization of antimicrobial treatment in this group of patients.
The aim of the study is to compare between neutrophil lymphocyte ratio and lactate albumin ratio as a predictor of morbidity and mortality in sepsis and septic shock patients.
