Cortisol levels may predict sepsis outcomes in ICU
NCT ID NCT07582926
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is measuring cortisol levels in 183 adults with sepsis or septic shock in the ICU to see if those levels can predict who is at higher risk of dying. Researchers will track deaths in the ICU and at 28 and 90 days. The goal is to help doctors identify high-risk patients earlier, but this is an observational study only — it does not test any new treatment.
