Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Number of days from randomization to recovery from sepsis among those patients who survived the trial period

  • Endpoint considered in conjunction with observed mortality rates to determine whether any reduction in time to recovery from sepsis

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • Number of days from randomization to ready to discharge from the ICU

  • Number of days from randomization until patient is discharged from the ICU

  • Number of days on first line antibiotic therapy

  • Number of days from randomization until patient is discharged from hospital

  • Proportion of patients who achieve clinical cure from sepsis following first line antibiotic therapy

  • +4 more secondary outcomes
