What this Trial Is About

Researchers are studying circulatory shock (CS), a sudden and life-threatening condition causing organ failure. Although critical care advancements have improved early survival, patients who survive CS face higher risks of new infections and cardiovascular problems. The study aims to understand how premature aging (senescence) of blood vessel lining cells (endothelial cells) and immune cells contributes to these complications after CS. The study will include 500 patients hospitalized in intensive care units with circulatory shock and 20 healthy volunteers for comparison. Researchers will collect biological samples and use noninvasive methods to assess heart and blood vessel function and stiffness. This observational study will evaluate the presence of senescent cell features and their role in secondary infections and cardiovascular events. Participants will be followed for up to five years to monitor the development of cardiovascular problems and infections. The main measurement is the detection of senescent traits in leukocytes and endothelial cells after one year. Data on heart function, arterial stiffness, and immune cell aging will be gathered through various assessments. This long-term follow-up aims to improve understanding of disease processes and guide future prevention strategies.
