Gamma globulin shows promise for critically ill children with inflammatory storms
NCT ID NCT04850456
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether giving gamma globulin to children with severe infections and inflammatory storms can lower death rates and shorten time in the intensive care unit. Researchers will compare 200 children who received gamma globulin with those who did not. The goal is to create a simple guide for doctors to decide when to use this treatment.
