First seen Jan 05, 2026 · Last updated May 07, 2026 · Updated 19 times

Summary

This study looks at whether a blood test called reticulated platelet fraction (RP%) can help doctors diagnose ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) earlier and predict how well patients will do. About 42 adults in the ICU who are on breathing machines will have their blood tested as part of routine care. The goal is to see if RP% levels can spot the infection and forecast recovery or risk of death.
