Red Cell Distribution Width to Albumin Ratio in Burn Patients

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study collects data from adults with burn injuries to see if the RDW/albumin ratio measured within 24 hours of hospital arrival can predict 30-day mortality. It records patient characteristics, burn severity, and comorbidities, and follows standard burn resuscitation practices in the first 72 hours, including fluid management and monitoring. No specific intervention is tested beyond routine care and the prognostic value of the biomarker ratio. The study uses ICU patients admitted within 24 hours and relies on laboratory data obtained on admission to calculate the ratio and assess its association with 30-day outcomes.
