Patients had an average of 3.4 comorbid conditions, with common (reported by > 25% of patients) comorbidities being anxiety (76.1%), sleep disturbance/insomnia (59.1%), and chronic fatigue syndrome (52.3%).
Patients' comorbidities were recorded.
Moreover, the majority of clinical studies in humans evaluating cardiac function in sepsis did not consider the patients' comorbidities.
The American Society of Anesthesiologists physical function (ASA) score based on the severity of patients' comorbidities was evaluated [33].
A variety of chemotherapeutic doublets, including nonplatinum combinations, with similar clinical activity are now available, allowing oncologists to match acceptable toxicity profiles to individual patients' comorbidities and preferences.
The objective was to assess the relationship between patients' comorbidities evaluated with the Charlson index, and the caregiver burden, independently of health disorders related to cognitive impairment.
The etiology of chronic wounds can be diverse, and the healing process is affected by patients' comorbidities, as well as local wound factors.
Patients' comorbidities, demographic data and classical risk factors for difficult intubation in anesthesiology, as well as the MACOCHA score, were collected on admission.
Another limitation of EUPHAS 2 is the lack of information about patients comorbidities and early antibiotic therapy appropriately applied, which cannot be obtained from the phase 1 of the registry.
Although aggressive early fluid resuscitation followed by vasoactive agents (in those with persistent hypotension) remains the cornerstone of the management of patients with severe sepsis and septic shock, the endpoints of resuscitation should be based on validated physiologic variables that are individualized based on each patients' comorbidities and unique clinical circumstances [13].
The Charlson index was calculated to assess patients' comorbidities.
