Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to better understand the relationship between gender (being a man or a woman), infections caught in the hospital, and serious illness. Five hundred seventy patients 18 years of age or older who are critically (seriously) ill and admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for at least 48 hours will participate in this study. Patients will be studied while receiving regular ICU treatment according to local standards. Blood specimens will come from patients either as wasted blood (University of Virginia) or blood collected from patients specifically for the study (Vanderbilt University). All patients will be followed daily until death or discharge from the ICU. The researchers believe that they will find a similar risk of infection for men and women overall.
