Evaluation of Plasma Angiotensin II and Angiotensin II Receptor Levels in Patients With Sepsis and Septic Shock: a Prospective Observational Study.

Conditions
Septic Shock
Sepsis
Registration Number
NCT04716842
Lead Sponsor
Inonu University
Brief Summary

Evaluation of plasma angiotensin II and angiotensin II receptor levels in patients with sepsis and septic shock: a prospective observational study.

Detailed Description

There is an increasing number of experimental publications investigated effects of angiotensin II and receptors on the pathogenesis and treatment of sepsis and septic shock. However, its level in humans and its relationship with the severity of the disease has not been investigated. If angiotensin II plays a role in the diagnosis and prognosis of septic shock by evaluating this relationship in our study, it may be a biomarker to be used in future diagnosis, prediction of prognosis and treatment. This will enable early recognition and treatment of this disease, which causes high mortality and cost in intensive care units, thus increasing the survival rate and reducing the cost.
