Summary

This study follows 2,400 critically ill patients in intensive care units across China to better understand sepsis, a life-threatening condition where the body's response to infection damages its own organs. Researchers will collect detailed data on infections, immune responses, and patient outcomes to develop tools for earlier detection and more personalized treatment. The goal is to reduce deaths and improve recovery for the millions affected by sepsis worldwide.
