Data on physiological, laboratory variables and scores derived from the scoring systems, [Acute physiology age and chronic health evaluation III score (APACHE III) and simplified acute physiology score II (SAPS II)] during the first 24 hours of presentation with sepsis were collected and the most abnormal values during the first 24 hours of presentation were analysed.
Acute Physiology Age Chronic Health Evaluation.
Acute physiology age and chronic health evaluation.
Acute physiology age and chronic health II score.
SAPS-II, simplified acute physiology score; APACHE II, acute physiology, age and chronic health evaluation.
Demographic data, smoke status, ventilator data, length of ICU and hospital stays and measures of severity of illness such as the Acute Physiology, Age, and Chronic Health Evaluation Acute Lung Injury Scoree and Sepsis-Related Organ Failure Assessment were evaluated.
A mean Acute Physiology, Age, and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE III) score of >50 is associated with increased intensive care unit mortality rate in nonpregnant cardiac and trauma patients.
Detailed demographic data and medical history, including smoking and alcohol history and baseline renal function, as well as data for baseline severity of illness, including the Acute Physiology, Age, Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) III [28], SOFA [24], and Brussels organ failure scores [29] will be recorded.
APACHE II, Acute Physiology, Age, Chronic Health Evaluation score; BMI, body mass index; e', early peak velocity of the septal mitral annulus using tissue Doppler imaging; E, early peak mitral inflow velocity using spectral Doppler; A, atrial peak mitral inflow velocity using spectral Doppler; DT, mitral deceleration time; VFD, ventilator-free days.
Many studies have found general critical illness scores, such as Acute Physiology, Age and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) to be superior to liver-specific scores such as Child Pugh, the Model for End-Stage Liver Diseand (MELD) and the UK Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (UKELD) [5, 11, 15, 18, 21].
On univariate analysis, significant risk factors were emergency surgery, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), reintubation, coma, steroid treatment, intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation (IABC), enteral feedings, tracheostomy, acute physiology, age, and chronic health evaluation (APACHE II) score, prior antibiotics, and IPPV hours.
