NCT ID NCT06612307

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This completed study looked at whether certain blood cell tests can predict early worsening in sepsis patients. Researchers followed 161 adults in intensive care for up to 5 days after diagnosis. They compared white blood cell profiles and platelet indices to see which better predicted a rise in organ failure, septic shock, or death. The goal is to find a simple tool to identify high-risk patients early.

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 a simple blood test to identify sepsis patients at high risk of rapid decline, helping doctors intervene earlier.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed observational study, not a treatment trial. The findings may not apply to all sepsis patients, especially those with diabetes who were excluded.

Who is studied

population admitted to the ICU with a diagnosis of sepsis were screened for inclusion within 48 h of presentation to the hospital. Sepsis was defined as per the Sepsis-3 definition, 6 ie, the presence of suspected or documented infection with organ dysfunction determined by an acute increase of sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score by 2 or more points
