Blood tests could reveal how septic shock patients are responding
NCT ID NCT07401329
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at two blood markers—nCD64 and mHLA-DR—in 76 adults with septic shock, a life-threatening infection that can cause organ failure. Doctors measured these markers on day 1 and day 8 to see how the immune system changed over time. The goal was to learn whether these markers can help predict which patients are more likely to survive.
