Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates for this study are patients diagnosed with sepsis who can receive enteral nutrition within 24 hours of treatment initiation.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with chronic liver disease, chronic renal failure, active cancer, or those receiving parenteral nutrition may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This observational study aims to explore the impact of enteral nutrition content on the progression of sepsis in patients receiving treatment in an intensive care unit. Sepsis is a critical condition characterized by an overactive inflammatory response, and effective management is crucial for patient outcomes. The study will assess how different macro- and micronutrient compositions in enteral nutrition can influence inflammatory and immune responses, potentially affecting disease outcomes. Conducted at Mehmet Akif Inan Training and Research Hospital, the study will involve monitoring the nutritional intake of sepsis patients to evaluate its effects on their health status.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved nutritional strategies that enhance recovery and outcomes for sepsis patients.
How similar studies have gone: Existing literature suggests that different enteral nutrient compositions can significantly affect sepsis outcomes, indicating that this approach has been explored with some success.
