Active clinical trials for "Sepsis"

The mortality rate of sepsis remains as high as 30 to 40%. Early diagnosis and treatment of patients with sepsis reduce mortality significantly. The most commonly used biomarkers in clinical practice are C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin (PCT). In terms of exploring new diagnostic tools of sepsis, monocyte distribution width (MDW) was first reported in 2017. It was reported as part of the white blood cell (WBC) differential count. MDW greater than 20 and abnormal WBC count together were reported to provide a satisfactory accuracy. The area under curve (AUC) in predicting sepsis-2 is 0.852. It was proposed as a novel diagnostic tool of sepsis in the emergency setting. Nonetheless, the performance of MDW compared with the conventional biomarkers remained unknown. The aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic accuracy of MDW and PCT on sepsis in the emergency department.

The study will evaluate the benefit of early initiation of CRRT in the initial phase of severe sepsis in patients admitted to the ICU. Primary evaluated end-point is 28-day mortality. Secondarily evaluated end-point is length of ICU-stay, length of stay in hospital, duration of mechanical ventilation. There are two groups. One group of participants with early CRRT initiation and another group with late CRRT initiation. Reference group no CRRT.

The new definition of sepsis (sepsis 3.0) restricts the early diagnosis of sepsis in general wards. Despite an alternative process by using a simplified qSOFA score, many patients may still be left out. Whether these patients matter or not is unknown. This prospective cohort includes patients from ten general wards with high incidence of infection during a consecutive half year, obtains qSOFA and SOFA score, follows up prognostic data, therefore to compare patients under different groups, eventually to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of qSOFA score in diagnosis of sepsis.

The pathophysiology and treatment of sepsis disease are still not fully known. International guides often refer to the studies done in the developed countries and suggest some treatments. The infrastructure of the developing countries is quite different. For this reason, it is not exactly scientific how much these proposals are reflected in patient treatment. In our study, We will try to reveal the treatment of sepsis.

The purpose of this study is to explore the value of CD4+T lymphocyte subsets in cell immunity in the patients with sepsis.There are immunoparalysis in septic patients,the important player is the change of CD4+T lymphocyte,this immunoparalysis state contribute to the illness progress and outcome. Comprehend the change regularity of septic patients' cell immunity can guide fiter and correcter treatment.

Sepsis is a common cause of death in intensive care unit, timely and accurate diagnosis and treatment directly affect the survival rate. MiRNA is a post-transcriptional small RNA which regulate mRNA expression. The present study was designed to observe the selected miRNA expression which evaluate the sepsis prognosis in the progression of sepsis in order to be a new target for the treatment of sepsis.

The development and severity of sepsis induced myocardial dysfunction can be monitored from the serum biomarker.
