Make every selection count: your top 10 paediatric sepsis research priorities
Every year, 3.4 million children die from sepsis, most of them under the age of five. In low and middle-income countries, more than one in five children with sepsis will not survive. Despite this scale, paediatric-specific research into prevention, diagnosis and treatment remains severely limited.
The PASSPORT study is an international research priority-setting exercise designed to change that. Using a rigorous and well-established method, it brings together the views of families and healthcare professionals to agree on where research efforts should be focused.
Survey 2 is NOW OPEN and takes around 5 minutes to complete. You’ll be asked to review a shortlist of research questions and select the 10 you feel are most important across six areas, including diagnosis, treatment and long-term recovery.
We’re asking members of our community to take part if you are a parent, carer or child affected by sepsis, or a healthcare professional with experience in paediatric sepsis care. Please share the link with your networks too.
