NCT ID NCT07562217
First seen May 05, 2026 · Last updated Jun 19, 2026 · Updated 11 times
Summary
This study will test whether adding information about a patient's fluid status to standard heart ultrasound can better predict serious outcomes like death in people with sepsis. About 200 adults in ICUs across four countries will get regular heart scans and fluid measurements. Researchers will follow them for a year to see which heart measurements best link to complications.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to better ways to predict which sepsis patients are at highest risk of death or heart problems.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only looks at whether a new measurement method works—it won't directly improve patient care.
