Sepsis Biomarker Monitoring in Burn Patients

Resumo breve

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if using pancreatic stone protein (PSP) test results helps doctors find and treat sepsis earlier in adults with serious burn injuries. The study will also look at whether using PSP is safe and practical in the burn intensive care unit. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does seeing PSP test results help doctors start the right antibiotics sooner? * Does using PSP reduce unnecessary antibiotic use? * Does using PSP improve recovery and other health outcomes? Researchers will compare two groups of patients. One group will receive standard care, and their PSP test results will be hidden from their care team. The other group will receive standard care, but their care team will be able to see the PSP test results and use them to help make treatment decisions. Participants will: * Be randomly assigned to one of the two study groups. * Have a small blood sample taken within 24 hours after being admitted to the burn ICU and then once each weekday while they are in the ICU. * Receive the usual care for burn injuries and sepsis throughout the study.
