NCT04163705

Brief Summary

The immune response can acquire different profiles (proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory response) depending on the activating agent.The objective of this study is to compare the immunological profile in patients with severe sepsis and positive blood cultures.

    Six months

  • SOFA score comparison

    Six months

Study Arms (2)

Gram negative

The presence of one or more positive samples will be considered positive blood cultures. Patients with severe sepsis will be enrolled prospectively and consecutively. Some of the blood used for blood culture samples will be processed for the study (sample 0). The plasma will be stored at -80 ° for later analysis. A routine clinical and laboratory database will be completed. Only patients who have positive blood cultures will be randomized according to their result in: sepsis by Gram positive or Gram negative.

Diagnostic Test: blood sample collection

Gram positive

The presence of one or more positive samples will be considered positive blood cultures. Patients with severe sepsis will be enrolled prospectively and consecutively. Some of the blood used for blood culture samples will be processed for the study (sample 0). The plasma will be stored at -80 ° for later analysis. A routine clinical and laboratory database will be completed. Only patients who have positive blood cultures will be randomized according to their result in: sepsis by Gram positive or Gram negative.
