Stool sample may predict survival in ICU patients

NCT ID NCT07658001

First seen Jun 18, 2026 · Last updated Jun 18, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether measuring lactate in stool can help doctors predict how well critically ill patients with low blood flow will respond to treatment. About 40 adults in the ICU will provide a stool sample within 24 hours of admission. Researchers will check if high stool lactate levels are linked to worse outcomes, such as needing more medication or organ failure. The goal is to find a simple, noninvasive way to guide care early on.
