NCT ID NCT07340060
First seen Jan 18, 2026 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 20 times
Summary
This study is looking at whether the level of bicarbonate in the blood can help predict if a patient will die or need intensive care within 48 hours of arriving at the emergency department. Researchers will track 6,500 adults who have a blood test done as part of their regular care. The goal is to see if low bicarbonate levels are linked to worse outcomes, which could help doctors spot high-risk patients sooner.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors quickly identify high-risk patients in the emergency room using a simple blood test.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only looks for a statistical link, so it won't prove cause and effect or directly change patient care.
As listed by the trial registrant
The condition terms exactly as the trial's registrant entered them.
