Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Electronic Medical Records (EMR) Data: APACHE II and SOFA severity scores. Demographics, vital signs, inflammatory markers, organ dysfunction markers, and various blood chemistry values.
Days 2-3 Daily Documentation: Record the most abnormal value for the same parameters as Day 1.
Days 3-5 (Once) Sample Collection: Repeat of blood, saliva, stool, and tracheal aspirate collection. EMR data access for severity scores and other clinical parameters.
Days 5-6 Daily Documentation: Continued recording of the most abnormal values for clinical parameters.
Days 7-10 (Once) Sample Collection: Repeat of blood, saliva, stool, and tracheal aspirate collection. Measurement of muscle size and CT correlation. EMR data access for the same parameters as earlier.
Day 14 (or Discharge) Final Sample Collection: 20ml of blood and other samples, with no more than 1 ml/kg of blood collected over the entire study.
EMR and Clinical Data: Collection of severity scores, vital signs, inflammation markers, organ dysfunction markers, and other clinical variables.
Day 30, 3 Months, 6 Months, and 1 Year Long-term Outcomes: EMR review for clinical outcomes such as date of death, re-hospitalization, persistent critical illness. Phone interviews to gather subjective data about the post-hospitalization course and complications.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Sepsis
Patients with sepsis as defined by the Sepsis-3 criteria
No interventions assigned to this group
Control
Patients without sepsis, as defined by the Sepsis-3 criteria
No interventions assigned to this group
Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria

3. Cognitively intact or impaired patients, given that sepsis may cause a certain degree of cognitive dysfunction in patients. All patients in the control group (no sepsis) will be cognitively intact
4. Clinical suspicion for sepsis (except for control/comparison group for whom infection is NOT a current concern)
Exclusion Criteria
2. Pregnant women
3. Patient/surrogate is not fluent in English and no translation services are available
4. Long-term immunosuppressive therapy
5. Prisoner
