Endothelium in Severe Sepsis

NCT00793442 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 910

Last updated 2024-10-29

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The overall hypotheses of this project is that severe sepsis is associated with endothelial dysfunction; that endothelial dysfunction, in turn, is predictive of subsequent organ failure and death; and that protocolized resuscitation attenuates endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction and improves patient survival.

Conditions

  • Sepsis
  • Severe Sepsis
  • Septic Shock

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Blood Collection and Assays

The researchers will sample blood upon enrollment, at 6 and 24 hours after the baseline sampling. The researchers will measure 6 different endothelial related biomarkers compromising different components of endothelial permeability and hemostasis.
