Comparison to Early Detect of the Sepsis
- Conditions
- Sepsis Scores
- Registration Number
- NCT05107297
- Lead Sponsor
- Assiut University
- Brief Summary
The aim of the study was to identify co-variates associated with 30-day mortality in septic patients admitted to the emergency department in order to improve morbidity \& mortality as a sequence of sepsis in Assiut \& Suez Canal Universities by comparing both scores by utilizing parameters that are readily available .
- Detailed Description
There are a relatively large number of conditions where urgent intervention is required in order to secure the best outcome for the patient. Examples include sepsis, myocardial infarction (MI). Clinical diagnosis of some of these conditions is not always straightforward, but a common theme is that many present with deranged physiology and vital signs. Implementation of an early warning score on arrival at hospital has helped to identify seriously ill patients .
There is a high mortality rate associated with severe infection at all ages Sepsis occurs when life-threatening organ dysfunction is associated with infection.
What is a national early warning score (NEWS)? The following six simple physiological parameters are included in the scoring system: respiratory rate, oxygen saturation, temperature; the normal human body temperature range is typically stated as 36.5-37 °C( ), systolic blood pressure, pulse rate \& level of consciousness.
What is a sepsis patient evaluation in the emergency department (SPEED)? The following simple clinical, physiological and laboratory parameters are included in the scoring system : hypotension (systolic pressure \<90 mmHg) hypothermia (body temperature \<36.0°C) , hypoxemia (pulse oximetry \<90%), low hematocrit (hematocrit \<0.38), Acidosis (blood PH \< 7.35), elevated blood lactate \>2.4 mmol/L \& source of infection as pneumonia.
