We propose to compare two different types of blood tests at admission of a patient to intensive care unit and estimate how accurate is each one of this to predict death in intensive care unit.

Comparison of admission blood lactate and unmeasured anions measured by Stewart-Fencl approach as a predictors for ICU mortality

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary: Compare the ICU mortality prediction ability of unmeasured anions measured at admission by Stewart-Fencl approach and blood lactate in patients admitting from emergency department.Timepoint: Primary end point (ie., mortality) will be estimated at 48 hours after ICU admission.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary 1. To calculate the number of patients having a different acid-base interpretation using the Stewart-Fencl approach. 2. To assess whether adding UA measured by Stewart-Fencl approach to the admission mortality prediction scores can improve their mortality prediction.Timepoint: Secondary end points will be measured at 48 hours of ICU admission.
