NCT ID NCT06877793
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 22 times
Summary
This study tests a new way to quickly diagnose necrotizing fasciitis (flesh-eating bacteria), a fast-spreading infection that is often misdiagnosed. Doctors will inject a safe green dye (ICG) and use a special camera to see if infected tissue shows a lack of blood flow, which is a key sign of the disease. The goal is to create a faster, more accurate test to help save lives. About 420 adults with suspected infection will take part at eight U.S. hospitals.
