Abstract:Objective
Existing studies have shown that the incidence of hypomagnesemia may be as high as 60%. However, the correlation between hypomagnesia and sepsis mortality remains elusive. The current study evaluated the effect of hypomagnesemia on the prognosis of patients with sepsis in ICU.
Methods
It was a retrospective cohort study based on an online database named MIMIC III. A total of 1448 sepsis patients with serum magnesium were admitted to the database, among which 645 patients were screened out.
