NCT05143736

Brief Summary

In this prospective, multicentered , diagnostic trial, nasal and fecal specimens will collected from patients with sepsis in two critical care units(ICU) at the enrollment day ,the third, seventh, and fourteen days after enrollment or until ICU discharge (whatever come first). Total DNA from the nasal and fecal specimens will be extracted, amplified, and sequenced to determined the characteristics of gut microbiota and nasal microbiota. Finally, the characteristics of gut microbiota and nasal microbiota combined clinical information will be used to construct a prediction model to predict the prognosis of sepsis.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • All-cause death at 28 days

    All-cause mortality from the enrollment to the 28th day

    The outcome will be assessed on the 28th day from enrollment

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Incidence of septic shock

    The outcome will be assessed diurnally until ICU discharge,the longest evaluation duration is no more than 28 days

  • Incidence of persistent inflammation-immunosuppression catabolism syndrome (PICS)

    The outcome will be assessed diurnally until ICU discharge,the longest evaluation duration is no more than 28 days

Study Arms (2)

Modeling cohort

The population enrolled at the intensive care unit of Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University in Guangdong Province, China will be used as a modeling cohort.For the patients in this cohort, the nasal and fecal specimens and related clinical information will collected to construct the prediction model.

Diagnostic Test: gut and nasal microbiota detection

validation cohort

The population enrolled at the intensive care unit of Dongguan People's Hospital in Guangdong Province, China will be used as a validation cohort.

Diagnostic Test: gut and nasal microbiota detection

Interventions

The nasal and fecal specimens will be collected by swabs from subjects with sepsis. After that, total DNA of nasal and gut microbiota will be extracted , amplified, and sequenced to determine the gut and nasal microbiota.
