Alert information
N=60'055 (!) included in analysis
Baseline difference of COVID-19 5% in control vs. 12% in treatment groups
Both groups received many alerts 🤔

Trial design and impact of COVID-19 in orange
Importantly, the alert is a tool initiating detailed assessment 🩺🥼
45 wards were randomised, concealed until one month before start over 10 periods (from period 3: impacted by COVID-19)

HFNC was noninferior to NIV
Adverse events were very similar btw groups

#CCRdownunder24
Also, clear failure definitions 👌 (⚠️ included NIV for the HFNC group)

🎯 endotracheal intubation or death at day 7
I like that they included a step-down procedure along with initiation protocol 👌

Outcome table
Half of pts were intubated, 1/3 went to the ICU, 22% received surgery
No difference in primary outcome, tendency to more death in restricted O2

Immune impairments in sepsis survivors
Why PCV13

Next up VACRiSS trial
Can a vaccine (PCV13) reverse immune impairments in sepsis survivors?

Immune impairments in sepsis
Uncertainty
Why PCV13?
Aims & objectives
Next VACRiSS trial
Rationale & background:
Sepsis survivors suffer from poor health, immune impairments common.
Can a vaccine (PCV13) reverse this?
Particularly, t-cell function?

First up at #ccrdownunder24 ADAPTSepsis with Paul Dark Biomarker guided antibiotic duration in hospitalised patients with sepsis.
Does treatment protocol using CRP or PCT reduce total 28day use of antibiotics- and safely (28day mortality)?

Absolutely fantastic work from @darknatter.bsky.social and team. Looking forward to a deep dive into the paper!

ADAPT-Sepsis results from CCR Down Under.
1ry outcomes: Standard care vs PCT shows improved significant reduction in antibiotic duration, but not for Standard vs CRP.
No difference in 90D mortality.
#CCRdownunder24
ADAPT-Sepsis results from CCR Down Under.
1ry outcomes total duration of antibiotics and safety of all-cause mortality up to D28.
2ry outcomes: escalation of care/re-admission; infection re-lapse/recurrence; antibiotic dose; LoS, level of critical care stay.
