Observational Study.
No findings were extractable from the material analysed.
Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
The source did not state who this applies to in practice.
Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
This record has not been graded across any dimension yet. Treat the label above as provisional and read the source.
What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT07126574). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: Dohern Kym. Recruitment status: ENROLLING_BY_INVITATION. Study type: OBSERVATIONAL. Enrollment: 165 participants (ESTIMATED). Conditions: Sepsis - to Reduce Mortality in the Intensive Care Unit, Burns Involving 20% or More of Body Surface. Primary outcome measures: Diagnostic accuracy of presepsin for early sepsis detection , At the time of clinical suspicion of sepsis (Day 0), and daily for the following 7 days (Day 1 through Day 7).. Brief summary: This prospective diagnostic accuracy study evaluates the performance of presepsin and C-reactive protein (CRP) as early biomarkers for suspected sepsis in adult burn patients. From January 2021 to December 2022, 370 patients with ≥20% total body surface area burns admitted to the Burn Intensive Care Unit at Hallym University Hangang Sacred Heart Hospital were screened; 221 met inclusion criteria. At each clinical suspicion of sepsis (≥2 SIRS criteria), venous blood was drawn for simultaneous measurement of presepsin (via chemiluminescent immunoassay) and CRP (via immunoturbidimetric assay). Diagnostic accuracy will be quantified by sensitivity, specificity, positive/negative predictive values, and area under the ROC curve. The goal is to determine whether presepsin outperforms CRP for early sepsis detection in severe burn patients.
