Septic Shock, Severe Sepsis
Conditions
Brief summary
The study aims to investigate clinically and prognostically relevant parameters in patients with sepsis and septic shock within a monocentric observational clinical register.
Detailed description
All consecutive septic patients at the internists intensive care Unit (ICU) at the University of Mannheim are included in the register and follow up during ICU stay and after that. Data of patients' admission status, septic focus, baseline parameters, and comorbidities are collected. Extensive information about echocardiography, electrocardiography, and imaging procedures are included in the register. Laboratory values, microbiological investigations, organ dysfunction and organ replacement therapies, medication, adverse events, and complications were recorded for several days during the ICU stay (days 1, 2,3, 5,7, and 10). Standard scores for critically ill patients were calculated for the day before admission at the ICU if available, and several time points during the ICU stay. The register includes information about the mortality during ICU stay, 30-day mortality, 6-month mortality, and septic patients' 1-year mortality.
