  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients who were diagnosed according to the criteria as being critically ill by the ED responsible physician (patients whose basic vital functions are unstable, who receive supportive treatment or whose general condition is expected to deteriorate) were included. Patients over 18 years of age who agreed to participate in the study were included after consent was obtained from the patient or their relatives. Patients who did not meet the definition of critical patients, whose follow-up was incomplete, who did not want to participate in the study, pregnant women, and patients under 18 years of age were all excluded. A healthy control group was formed from the relatives of the patients who came to the ED outpatient clinics, as well as hospital staff who wanted to participate in the study. Critical patients were divided into the following seven groups according to their emergency department diagnosis: central nervous system, cardiovascular system, respiratory system, gastrointestinal syst

Who may be able to join

  • Age 18 years or older Evaluated as critically ill by emergency department physician

Who cannot join

About this study

The investigators aimed to investigate the diagnostic and prognostic levels of D-Lactate and SCUBE-1 in critically ill patients being admitted to the emergency department.

Read the detailed description

Patients who were diagnosed according to the criteria as being critically ill by the ED responsible physician (patients whose basic vital functions are unstable, who receive supportive treatment or whose general condition is expected to deteriorate) were included. Patients over 18 years of age who agreed to participate in the study were included after consent was obtained from the patient or their relatives. Patients who did not meet the definition of critical patients, whose follow-up was incomplete, who did not want to participate in the study, pregnant women, and patients under 18 years of age were all excluded. A healthy control group was formed from the relatives of the patients who came to the ED outpatient clinics, as well as hospital staff who wanted to participate in the study.

Age, gender, known diseases, medications, vital parameters, and the laboratory results from critically ill patients and healthy volunteers admitted to the ED were recorded, and blood samples taken for D-Lactate and SCUBE-1 at the time of admission to the emergency room were placed in Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) tubes. Clinical scores, such as the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II, Revised Trauma Score (RTS), and shock index were calculated. Critical patients were divided into the following seven groups according to their emergency department diagnosis: central nervous system, cardiovascular system, respiratory system, gastrointestinal system/metabolic, sepsis, trauma, and other. The clinical outcomes of these patients (ED length of stay, ICU or ward admission, ED and ICU mortality) were also noted. The relationship between the patient's clinical scoring (GCS, APACHE II, RTS and shock index ), laboratory results, and mortality status with D-Lactate and SCUBE-1 levels was compared. At the same time, the diagnostic value of d-lactate and SCUBE-1 for distinguishing critically ill patients was investigated.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • D-LactateDiagnostic test

    D-Lactate and SCUBE-1 can be used as early diagnosis and mortality indicators in critically ill patients.

Study groups in NCT06704438
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Control GroupThe control group consisted of healthy individuals without any disease who voluntarily participated in the study.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: D-Lactate
Patients GroupPatients over the age of 18 who were diagnosed as critically ill by the emergency department physician and who gave informed consent were included in the study.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: D-Lactate

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Comparison of D-Lactate and SCUBE-1 levels in patients who were diagnosed according to the criteria as being critically ill by the ED responsible physician and a control group

    The investigators compared the plasma blood levels of biomarkers in both groups

    Measured: The study was conducted with blood samples taken at the time of admission. The outcome measure will be assessed up to 24 weeks.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Comparison of D-Lactate and SCUBE-1 levels in patients who were diagnosed according to the criteria as being critically ill by the ED responsible physician and a control group (time frame: The study was conducted with blood samples taken at the time of admission. The outcome measure will be assessed up to 24 weeks.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
