Abstract
Post-sepsis psychiatric disorder, encompassing anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder and delirium, is a highly prevalent complication secondary to sepsis, resulting in a marked increase in long-term mortality among affected patients. Regrettably, psychiatric impairment associated with sepsis is frequently disregarded by clinicians. This review aims to summarize recent advancements in the understanding of the pathophysiology, prevention, and treatment of post-sepsis mental disorder, including coronavirus disease 2019-related psychiatric impairment. The pathophysiology of post-sepsis psychiatric disorder is complex and is known to involve blood-brain barrier disruption, overactivation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, neurotransmitter dysfunction, programmed cell death, and impaired neuroplasticity. No unified diagnostic criteria for this disorder are currently available; however, screening scales are often applied in its assessment. Modifiable risk factors for psychiatric impairment post-sepsis include the number of experienced traumatic memories, the length of ICU stay, level of albumin, the use of vasopressors or inotropes, daily activity function after sepsis, and the cumulative dose of dobutamine. To contribute to the prevention of post-sepsis psychiatric disorder, it may be beneficial to implement targeted interventions for these modifiable risk factors. Specific therapies for this condition remain scarce. Nevertheless, non-pharmacological approaches, such as comprehensive nursing care, may provide a promising avenue for treating psychiatric disorder following sepsis. In addition, although several therapeutic drugs have shown preliminary efficacy in animal models, further confirmation of their potential is required through follow-up clinical studies.

Abstract
Sepsis is a life-threatening condition with high mortality rates due to delayed treatment of patients. The conventional methodology for blood diagnosis takes several hours, which suspends treatment, limits early drug administration, and affects the patient's recovery. Thus, rapid, accurate, bedside (onsite), economical, and reliable sepsis biomarker reading of the clinical sample is an emergent need for patient lifesaving. Electrochemical label-free biosensors are specific and rapid devices that are able to perform analysis at the patient's bedside; thus, they are considered an attractive methodology in a clinical setting. To reveal their full diagnostic potential, electrode architecture strategies of fabrication are highly desirable, particularly those able to preserve specific antibody-antigen attraction, restrict non-specific adsorption, and exhibit high sensitivity with a low detection limit for a target biomarker. The aim of this review is to provide state-of-the-art methodologies allowing the fabrication of ultrasensitive and highly selective electrochemical sensors for sepsis biomarkers. This review focuses on different methods of label-free biomarker sensors and discusses their advantages and disadvantages. Then, it highlights effective ways of avoiding false results and the role of molecular labels and functionalization. Recent literature on electrode materials and antibody grafting strategies is discussed, and the most efficient methodology for overcoming the non-specific attraction issues is listed. Finally, we discuss the existing electrode architecture for specific biomarker readers and promising tactics for achieving quick and low detection limits for sepsis biomarkers.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the differential effects of an internet-based cognitive-behavioral writing therapy (iCBT) on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms after intensive care in patients and their spouses. METHODS This reanalysis of a randomized controlled trial compared PTSD symptom severity (measured by PCL-5) before and after therapy considering potential influencing factors in the per-protocol population. RESULTS A significant reduction in post-traumatic symptom severity after iCBT was found. Eleven of the 25 treated participants showed a clinically significant change (PCL-5 difference≥10 points). The number of words written by the participants in the therapy modules had a significant impact on iCBT efficacy. CONCLUSION iCBT appears to be a promising option to augment therapy for PTSD, particularly for physically impaired patients following critical illness.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nurses who provide patient care in COVID-19 intensive care have witnessed that patients experience problems such as fear of death, loneliness, helplessness, uncertainty, anxiety, etc. OBJECTIVE: In this study, it was aimed to examine the messages written by the patients who receive treatment in the COVID-19 Intensive Care Unit (ICU) through letters and their feelings and thoughts which they wanted to convey to their families. METHOD This study employed a qualitative research design. The sample of the study consisted of 52 patients admitted to the ICU. The data of the study were obtained by examining the letters written by the patients who received treatment in the COVID-19 ICU between April 2021 and June 2021. The researchers collected the research data through document analysis, one of the qualitative research methods. FINDINGS The messages that patients in the ICU wanted to convey to their families were identified as having two main themes: "emotions in the experience of illness" and "views on death." The "views on death" theme included sub-themes such as fear of death, the meaning of life, acceptance of death and Saying halal for the rights over each other, and wills. The "emotions in the experience of illness" theme included sub-themes of love, hope/ hopelessness, loneliness, and longing. CONCLUSION It is assumed that patients have the risk of encountering a variety of problems during their stay in ICU due to COVID-19 and that providing good physical and psychosocial care will improve the coping mechanisms of patients.

Abstract
ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy of xuebijing combined with ulinastatin in the treatment of traumatic sepsis and analyze the effects on inflammatory factors and immune function of patients.Methods182 patients with traumatic sepsis were selected from June 2017 to September 2021 in our hospital. The patients were divided into the control group and the observation group. Patients in both groups were given routine treatments such as initial resuscitation, blood transfusion, monitoring of lactic acid to guide fluid replacement, early control of infection source, selection of appropriate antibiotics, correction of acidosis, treatment of primary disease, prevention of hypothermia and stress ulcer, application of vasoactive drugs, application of glucocorticoid and nutritional support. The control group was treated with Xuebijing injection on the basis of routine treatment, and the observation group was given Xuebijing injection combined with ulinastatin treatment on the basis of routine treatment. The APACHE II score was applied to evaluate the patients before and after treatment, and the routine blood indicators, inflammatory factor indicators, immune function indicators and liver function indicators were tested.ResultsAfter the treatment, the APACHE II score of the observation group was (10.35 ± 3.04) lower than that of the control group (15.93 ± 4.52) (P < 0.05). After treatment, the WBC and neutrophils in the observation group (15.19 ± 2.91) and (0.65 ± 0.04) were lower than those in the control group (16.42 ± 3.44) and (0.79 ± 0.05), and the PLT(162.85 ± 43.92) was higher than that in the control group (122.68 ± 36.89) (P < 0.05). After treatment, the levels of serum PCT, IL-6, TNF-α in the observation group were (11.38 ± 3.05), (10.74 ± 3.82) and (9.82 ± 2.35) lower than those in the control groups (17.34 ± 3.29), (15.28 ± 4.05) and (13.24 ± 3.06) (P < 0.05). After treatment, the levels of CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, CD4+/CD8+ in the observation group were (50.64 ± 4.98), (40.56 ± 4.82), (27.22 ± 3.29), (1.49 ± 0.24) higher than those in the control groups (46.08 ± 4.75), (34.69 ± 4.08), (25.14 ± 3.18), (1.38 ± 0.19) (P < 0.05). After treatment, the levels of TBIL and AST in the observation group were (12.35 ± 3.82), (25.66 ± 4.49) lower than those in the control group (18.43 ± 4.06), (34.58 ± 5.06) (P < 0.05).ConclusionXubijing combined with ulinastatin has a good effect in the treatment of patients with traumatic sepsis, which can effectively improve the condition, reduce the body’s inflammatory response, and promote the recovery of patients’ immune function and liver function.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the efficacy, safety and applicability of internet-based, therapist-led partner-assisted cognitive-behavioural writing therapy (iCBT) for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms after intensive care for sepsis in patients and their spouses compared with a waitlist (WL) control group. DESIGN Randomised-controlled, parallel group, open-label, superiority trial with concealed allocation. SETTING Internet-based intervention in Germany; location-independent via web-portal. PARTICIPANTS Patients after intensive care for sepsis and their spouses of whom at least one had a presumptive PTSD diagnosis (PTSD-Checklist (PCL-5)≥33). Initially planned sample size: 98 dyads. INTERVENTIONS ICBT group: 10 writing assignments over a 5-week period; WL control group: 5-week waiting period. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES Primary outcome: pre-post change in PTSD symptom severity (PCL-5). SECONDARY OUTCOMES remission of PTSD, depression, anxiety and somatisation, relationship satisfaction, health-related quality of life, premature termination of treatment. Outcomes measures were applied pre and post treatment and at 3, 6 and 12 months follow-up. RESULTS Twenty-five dyads representing 34 participants with a presumptive PTSD diagnosis were randomised and analysed (ITT principle). There was no evidence for a difference in PCL-5 pre-post change for iCBT compared with WL (mean difference -0.96, 95% CI (-5.88 to 3.97), p=0.703). No adverse events were reported. Participants confirmed the applicability of iCBT. CONCLUSIONS ICBT was applied to reduce PTSD symptoms after intensive care for sepsis, for the first time addressing both patients and their spouses. It was applicable and safe in the given population. There was no evidence for the efficacy of iCBT on PTSD symptom severity. Due to the small sample size our findings remain preliminary but can guide further research, which is needed to determine if modified approaches to post-intensive care PTSD may be more effective.

Abstract
Background: Partners of burn survivors may develop posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms in response to the potential life threatening nature of the burn event and the burn survivor's medical treatment. Objective: This longitudinal study examined the prevalence, course and potential predictors of partners' PTSD symptoms up to 18 months post-burn. Methods: Participants were 111 partners of adult burn survivors. In a multi-centre study, PTSD symptoms were assessed with the Impact of Event Scale-Revised during the acute phase and subsequently at 3, 6, 12 and 18 months post-burn. Partners' appraisal of life threat, anger, guilt and level of rumination were assessed as potential predictors of PTSD symptoms in an exploratory piecewise latent growth model. Results: Acute PTSD symptoms in the clinical range were reported by 30% of the partners, which decreased to 4% at 18 months post-burn. Higher acute PTSD symptoms were related to perceived life threat and higher levels of anger, guilt, and rumination. Over time, mean symptom levels decreased, especially in partners with high levels of acute PTSD symptoms, perceived life threat and rumination. From three months onward, PTSD symptoms decreased less in partners of more severely burned survivors. At 18 months post-burn, higher levels of PTSD symptoms were related to higher acute PTSD symptoms and more severe burns. Conclusions: One in three partners reported clinical levels of acute PTSD symptoms, of which the majority recovered over time. Perceived life threat, feelings of anger and guilt, and rumination may indicate the presence of acute PTSD symptoms, whereas more severe burns predict long-term PTSD symptom levels. The results highlight the need to screen for acute PTSD symptoms and offer psychological help to partners to alleviate acute elevated stress levels if indicated.

Abstract
Sepsis, life-threatening organ dysfunction secondary to infection, hospitalizes nearly 75,000 children each year in the United States. Most children survive sepsis. However, there is increasing recognition of the longer-term consequences of pediatric sepsis hospitalization on both the child and their family, including medical, psychosocial, and financial impacts. Here, we describe family spillover effects (the impact of illness on caregivers) of pediatric sepsis, why measurement of family spillover effects is important, and the ways in which family spillover effects can be measured.
