The study will enhance the theory in the frame of reference on the efficacy of Ulinastatin while managing sepsis and subsequent morbidity and mortality. Moreover, the present study will explore Ulinastatin's prophylactic role in progression of multiple organ dysfunctions. Furthermore, the study will have the clinical implications in predicting the ICU admitted patient's stay and related cost in the context of new drug. Current researches will explore the new dimensions in Pakistan's healthcare facilities, paving the way of future academics to analyze it in order to enhance healthcare outcomes.
The current study is a randomised clinical trial with the aim of exploring the following objectives in the context of Pakistan:

| Prevention of MOD's in patients with sepsis | To assess the role of Ulinastatin in preventing the onset of MODS in sepsis-induced patients. Sepsis is defnied as evidence of infection (positive culture of blood, Urine, Tracheal) or suspected infection (by a physician) plus 2 out of 4 criteria's of SIRS. MODS is presence of two or more organ dysfunction with scoring ≥2 of each organ as per Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score. | Day 1 of enrollment |

MODS is presence of two or more organ dysfunction with scoring ≥2 of each organ as per Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score. | Day 5 of enrollment |
| Effect on in-hospital mortality | To investigate the impact of Ulinastatin on sepsis associated mortality. | During first 48 hours of hospital stay after enrollment |
| Effect on 7 days mortality | To investigate the impact of Ulinastatin on sepsis associated mortality. | During the 7 days of enrollment |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Number of days on mechanical ventilation | To explore the role of Ulinastatin in reducing the number of days on mechanical ventilation | Up to 28 days after enrollment |

| Effect on 14 days mortality | To investigate the impact of Ulinastatin on sepsis associated mortality. | During the 14 days of enrollment |
| Effect on 28 days mortality | To investigate the impact of Ulinastatin on sepsis associated mortality. | During the 28 days of enrollment |
| Up to 28 days after enrollment |
| Prevention of Severe Sepsis in patients admitted with Sepsis | To determine the efficacy of Ulinastatin in preventing the progression of sepsis to severe sepsis. Severe sepsis is sepsis as defined above plus at least one organ/system dysfunction scoring ≥ 2 as per Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score. | Up to 28 days after enrollment |
| Prevention of Septic Shock in patients admitted with Sepsis | To determine the efficacy of Ulinastatin in preventing the progression of sepsis to septic shock. Septic shock is persistent hypotension requiring vasopressors to maintain mean arterial pressure of 65mmHg or higher and a serum lactate level greater than 2mmol/L despite adequate volume resuscitation with 30ml/kg of crystalloid solution. | Up to 28 days after enrollment |
