متن کاملSoluble RAGE as a severity marker in community acquired pneumonia associated sepsis
BACKGROUND Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is considered the most important cause of death from infectious disease in developed countries. Severity assessment scores partially address the difficulties in identifying high-risk patients. A lack of specific and valid pathophysiologic severity markers affect early and effective sepsis therapy. HMGB-1, sRAGE and RAGE have been involved in sepsis ...

متن کاملCommunity-Acquired Severe Sepsis: A Prospective Cohort Study
Severe sepsis (SS) is one of the principal causes of admission in intensive care units (ICU), with an associated high morbidity and mortality. This study intends to characterize epidemiology of community-acquired SS (CASS) with special emphasis in the prevalence of multidrug resistant organisms and independent prognostic factors associated with ICU mortality. Methods: A prospective cohort study...
متن کاملSepsis severity predicts outcome in community-acquired pneumococcal pneumonia.
Easily performed prognostic rules are helpful for guiding the intensity of monitoring and treatment of patients. The aim of the present study was to compare the predictive value of the sepsis score and the Confusion, Respiratory rate (> or =30 breaths.min(-1)), Blood pressure (systolic value <90 mmHg or diastolic value < or =60 mmHg) and age > or =65 yrs (CRB-65) score in 105 patients with comm...
