First seen May 14, 2026 ยท Last updated May 14, 2026

Summary

This study uses data from 16,000 hospital patients to see if men and women, or younger and older adults, need different blood lactate thresholds to predict risk of death or serious illness. Researchers hope to improve how doctors identify high-risk patients with sepsis in the ICU. No new treatments are tested; the goal is to refine existing guidelines.
