- Conditions
- Mortality
- Interventions
- Diagnostic Test: Blood lactate level
- Registration Number
- NCT04792736
- Lead Sponsor
- Mongi Slim Hospital
- Brief Summary
he aim of this prospective, analytic trial was to evaluate the accuracy of blood lactates levels in predicting mortality in ICU patients.
- Detailed Description
In this study, conducted over o 12 months period, arterial blood lactates levels were measured in ICU patients at admission (H0), every 6 hours during the first day and and H48.
This trial included traumatic, medical and surgical patients requiring ICU stay for a predictive period \> to 24 hours.
Blood lactates were evaluated as a prognostic parameter in predicting ICU mortality and compared to classic prognostic scores such as: SOFA score, IGS II and APACHE II.
The primary end point was ICU mortality.
