Clinical Trial: Urea-to-Creatinine Ratio as a Marker of Metabolic Transition in Septic Shock: A Comparison With Indirect Calorimetry

U.S., Feb. 18 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07412366) titled 'Urea-to-Creatinine Ratio as a Marker of Metabolic Transition in Septic Shock: A Comparison With Indirect Calorimetry' on Feb. 09.

Brief Summary: Urea-to-Creatinine Ratio as a Marker of Metabolic Transition in Septic Shock: A Comparison with Indirect Calorimetry.

This study investigates whether the urea-to-creatinine ratio can serve as a simple marker of metabolic state in patients with septic shock. Septic shock is associated with hypermetabolism and severe protein catabolism, which worsen outcomes. Although indirect calorimetry is the gold standard for measuring energy expenditure and metabolic demand in critically ill patients, i...
