New sepsis score could save lives in the ER
NCT ID NCT07271329
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two scoring systems (REDS and qSOFA) to see which better predicts death within 30 days for adults coming to the emergency room with suspected sepsis. Researchers will enroll 80 patients and track their outcomes. The goal is to find a more accurate tool to help doctors act faster and improve survival.
