Our study affirms the feasibility of obtaining dependable immune phenotyping data within 6 h of blood collection from critically ill patients, both septic and non-septic, using the ELLA immunoassay. Both ELLA and ELISpot can offer valuable insights into prognosis, therapeutic strategies, and the underlying mechanisms of sepsis development.
