Simple blood test may spot hidden lung clots in ICU patients
NCT ID NCT05855317
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at 170 adults with severe breathing failure (ARDS) in the ICU. Researchers will take a blood sample to measure a clotting marker and then check if those who develop a pulmonary embolism (a blood clot in the lung) have higher levels. The goal is to see if this blood test can help doctors detect dangerous clots earlier.
