In contrast, diastolic dysfunction is often ignored and its role in determining early mortality from sepsis has not been adequately investigated. METHODS AND RESULTS A cohort of 262 intensive care unit patients with severe sepsis or septic shock underwent two echocardiography examinations...
متن کاملPrognostic value of ventricular diastolic dysfunction in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock

METHODS Adult septic patients admitted to an intensive care unit were prospectively studied using transthoracic echocardiography within the first 48 hours after admission and thereafter on the 7th-10th days. Echocardiographic variables of biventricular func...

متن کاملAdipocytokines in Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock
Among the different conditions of critical illness leading to admission to an Intensive Care Unit (ICU), sepsis remains the leading cause of death at the non-coronary medical ICU [1]. Even with optimal therapy, mortality rates of severe sepsis and septic shock are about 40 to 50% [2, 3]. Although there are numerous studies with varying methods from different countries, the incidence of severe s...
