Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Male or female aged ≥ 19 years
  • Appropriate clinical data to enable classification into sepsis
  • Written informed consent by the patient or legally authorized representative
  • Critical illness consistent with sepsis, to be enrolled within 24 hours of presentation

Exclusion criteria

  • No informed consent
  • A patient who is judged to be unable to make a voluntary decision by understanding information about this research due to cognitive vulnerability

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (ROC-AUC) of the Plasma Presepsin Concentration for Discriminating Between immunocompetent and immunocompromised patients.

    Time frame: up to 7 days

    For the analysis, plasma presepsin levels on Day 0 will be used. Sepsis was made on Day 7 or day of discharge. ROC-AUC of presepsin for discriminating between immunocompromised and immunocompetent patients is compared to that of procalcitonin.

Secondary outcomes

  1. survival at ICU discharge or day 28 after enrollment

    Time frame: 28 days

    For the analysis, we will evaluate the association between presepsin and survival at ICU discharge or day 28 after enrollment
