Study population: 120 critically ill patients, sixty patients are critically ill with evidence of sepsis during ICU stay (sepsis group) and sixty patients are critically ill without evidence of infectious organism (SIRS group). At admission, Patients data include clinical status; SOFA score; central venous pressure; laboratory analysis and arterial blood gas analysis are measured. Routine cultures will be obtained. The attending physician will evaluate the patients for sepsis, severe sepsis, or septic shock as long as their stay in ICU. A serum level of sTREM-1 and MNDA will be monitored.

A total of 120 patients will be included in the study. Sixty patients are critically ill with evidence of sepsis during ICU stay (sepsis group) and sixty patients are critically ill without evidence of infectious organism (SIRS group). At admission, Patients data include clinical status; SOFA score; central venous pressure; laboratory analysis and arterial blood gas analysis are measured. Routine cultures will be obtained. The attending physician will evaluate the patients for sepsis, severe sepsis, or septic shock as long as their stay in ICU. A serum level of sTREM-1 and MNDA will be monitored.
At admission, patient's age, sex, weight and height were Patients data that include the clinical status; sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score; temperature; heart rate; respiratory rate; blood pressure; central venous pressure; laboratory analysis (complete blood count, blood urea nitrogen, blood sugar, serum sodium, potassium, calcium, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, prothrombin time, albumin and CRP) and arterial blood gas analysis were measured. Routine cultures of suspected sites, blood and urine were obtained to determine the presence of infection. We attempted to maintain the patient hemoglobin level at 10-12g/dl and central venous pressure at 8-12 cmH2o. When needed, intravascular fluid replacement, blood products and inotropic or vasopressor agents were administered. Each day the attending physician evaluated all the study patients for sepsis, severe sepsis, or septic shock as long as their stay in ICU.
The signs of sepsis were body temperature <36C° or > 38C°, tachycardia (>90 beats/min), ventilatory frequency>20 breath/min or Pco2<32mmHg (unless the patient was mechanically ventilated), a white cell count ≥12×109 litre-1 or < 4x 109 litre-1, or >10% immature neutrophils, in addition to the presence of infection. Severe sepsis is a sepsis associated with evidence of organ dysfunction , hypoperfusion, acute alteration of mental status, elevated plasma lactate, unexplained metabolic acidosis (arterial ph<7.3), hypoxaemia, prolonged prothrombin time or decrease in platelet count >50% or ≤100×109litre1, oliguria and hypotension defined as systolic arterial pressure <90mmHg or a decrease of >40mmHg. Septic shock was defined as hypotension (<90/60mmHg) in addition to sepsis syndrome persisting despite adequate fluid resuscitation and requiring intropic support

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Sepsis ., run by Tanta University at 1 site in Egypt.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Dec 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
dynamic changes of serum sTREM-1 and MNDA (time frame: one week). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Dec 2014.
