Identification of developing multiple organ failure in sepsis patients with low or moderate SOFA scores
- An early identification of sepsis patients likely to progress towards multiple organ failure is crucial in order to initiate targeted therapeutic strategies to decrease mortality. Our recent publication highlighted the greater accuracy of mid-regional proadrenomedullin (MR-proADM) compared with conventional biomarkers and clinical scores in predicting 28-day mortality in patients with initially low (≤7 points; N = 240) or moderate (8–13 points; N = 653) Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) scores, thus confirming results from smaller investigations. This additional post hoc analysis aimed to further describe the non-surviving patient population of both subgroups and identify those likely to progress towards sepsis-related multiple organ failure. ...
