First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Aug 11, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study looks at whether adding certain nutrients to blood cells from people with septic shock can help restore the cells' energy-making machinery (mitochondria). Researchers will collect blood samples from 55 patients in the ICU and test these nutrients in the lab. The goal is to understand if this approach could one day lead to better treatments for organ failure in septic shock.
