简要总结
The goal of the IMPACT trial is to determine whether an individualized treatment strategy, initiated at admission to the Emergency Department, can reduce hospitalizations and improve survival among patients with sepsis. To address this question, we will enroll 300 participants in a randomized controlled trial.
All participants will undergo an extended clinical assessment. Those randomized to the individualized treatment arm may receive up to five targeted interventions, depending on the findings of this assessment.
The targeted interventions are:
- Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) to support breathing and help prevent respiratory problems in participants who show signs of breathing difficulties on ultrasound.
- Ketone ester, a nutritional supplement, to help support heart function in participants who show signs of heart strain on ultrasound.
- N-acetylcysteine, an antioxidant treatment, to help protect the liver in participants with early signs of liver stress.
- Intravenous iron to help prevent or treat anemia in participants who show signs of low iron levels.
- Hydrocortisone, a steroid, to help stabilize the immune system in participants with signs of immune overactivation.
Participants randomized to the control group will receive standard-of-care according to local clinical guidelines.
