REMISE Study: REMnant Biospecimen Investigation in SEpsis
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
In the REMISE is study, we will compare blood proteins, biomarkers, and other -omics prospectively collected from patients with sepsis from two sources, i.) remnant (discarded) samples from the clinical laboratory, and ii.) prospectively collected in UPMC Presbyterian hospital research coordinator specimen collected biospecimens.
Analyses will include traditional biomarkers, quantitative proteomics, metabolomics, lipidomics, transcriptomics, and pathogen genomic sequencing in both sets of samples. This data will allow the assessment of the feasibility, integrity, and scientific value of remnant samples compared to research coordinator samples collected at the bedside for mechanistic sepsis research.

Patients with Sepsis Adult patients (18 years or older) meeting Sepsis-3 criteria within 6 hours of emergency department admission. Patients will be excluded with the following conditions: traumatic injury, cardiac arrest, stroke, comfort measures only. |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Difference in traditional biomarkers, proteomics, pathogen sequencing, and metabolomics/lipidomics between prospectively collected biospecimens and remnant biospecimens. [01/2024]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Measurement of traditional biomarkers in all samples [1/2024]
Traditional biomarkers to be measured in remnant and research specimens including inflammatory and endothelial-related biomarkers.
- Measurement of proteomics in all samples [1/2024]
Proteomics to be measured in remnant and research specimens to capture over 50 different plasma proteins.
- Measurement of metabolomics/lipidomics in all samples [1/2024]
Metabolomics and lipidomics to be measured in remnant and research specimens to capture organic acids, amino acids, and phospholipids.
- Pathogen sequencing in all samples [1/2024]
Pathogen sequencing will be performed on all remnant and research specimens to precisely identify the causative strain(s) in the infection.
