Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The detection of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) is of interest because of their importance in the pathogenesis of arterial or venous thrombosis and their responsibility for a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations such as infection. The aim of the study was to assess the performance of antiphospholipid antibodies biomarker to predict in- hospital mortality in intensive care unit (ICU) septic patient's.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

the investigators conducted a prospective single-center observational study including consecutive critically ill septic adults admitted to the intensive care unit. Clinical and laboratory data including chemiluminescence immunoassay for antiphospholipid antibodies \[anticardiolipin (aCL), antiphosphatidylserine (aPS)\] were obtained. Blood samples were collected on days 1, 3, 5, 8 and 10 of hospitalization. The primary study endpoint was ICU mortality defined as death before ICU discharge. Secondary end points included correlation between SOFA score and biological parameters.
