Abstract:Background
The understanding of shock indices in patients with septic shock is limited, and their values may vary depending on cardiac function.
Methods
This prospective cohort study was conducted across 20 university-affiliated hospitals (21 intensive care units [ICUs]). Adult patients (≥19 years) with septic shock admitted to the ICUs during a 29-month period were included. The shock index (SI), diastolic shock index (DSI), modified shock index (MSI), and age shock index (Age-SI) were calculated at sepsis … Show more
