NCT ID NCT06116656

First seen Apr 30, 2026 · Last updated Jun 07, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This study looked at whether changes in a person's genes can help doctors tell the difference between a normal inflammatory response after major surgery and a true infection. Researchers collected blood samples from 61 adults undergoing high-risk noncardiac surgery. The goal was to see if specific gene patterns could diagnose infection earlier and more accurately, potentially improving recovery.
