Conditions: Sepsis, unspecified organism,

Registration Number: CTRI/2021/02/031412

Lead Sponsor: Swarnika Singh

Brief Summary: Sepsis is defined as life threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Sepsis remains an important cause of ICU admission, and despite advances in antibiotics and refined supportive care, mortality due to sepsis remains leading cause of death in non-coronary ICU.

There are several scoring system which have been developed to calculate and predict the mortality rate in critically ill patients.

APACHE is the first scoring system used to determine the prognosis of the patient. SAPS scoring system was developed later. SAPS-II is the most widely used scoring system in European ICU.

we are aiming to calculate the predicted mortality rate, with the help of two scoring systems, APACHE-IV and SAPS-II, and compare it with the actual mortality rate encountered in our ICU.
