What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT01670383
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Postresuscitation groupAdults (age over 16 years old) who have survived from nontraumatic cardiac arrest and admitted to ICU.
Sepsis groupAdults (age over 16 years old) who satisfy the sepsis criteria (SIRS>=2 and infection is suspected for a cause) and admitted to the ICU.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. 1-month mortality

    All cause mortality within 1-month

    Measured: 1 month

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Hospital mortality

    All cause mortality during hospitalization

    Measured: until hospital discharge, an expected average of 2 weeks

  2. ICU length of stay

    Measured: Until ward transfer or discharge, an expected average of 7 days

  3. Favorable neurologic outcome

    Favorable neurologic outcome is used for outcome measure in postresuscitation patients only.

    Favorable neurologic outcome means cerebral performance category 1 and 2. This outcome is measured at discharge and 6-month after admission.

    Measured: at discharge, an expected average of 2 weeks and at 6-month
