The Mortality in Severe Sepsis in the Emergency Department (MISSED) score is a newly proposed scoring system. The goal of this study is to determine if the MISSED score is generalizable to an urban tertiary care hospital.
This is a retrospective chart review conducted from July 2012 to June 2014. Inclusion criteria consisted of adult emergency department (ED) patients with severe sepsis, defined as lactate level 4mmol/L or greater. Demographics, lactate, international normalized ratio (INR), albumin, intensive care unit admission, and ED intubation were analyzed using χ(2) test, t test, and logistic regression. The MISSED score was calculated using the variables albumin 27g/L or less, INR 1.3 or greater, and age 65years or older and analyzed using the area under the curve. The primary outcome was inhospital mortality.
A total of 182 patients met inclusion criteria, and mortality was 32%. Patients in the mortality group had older age (58.1±17.2 vs 62.7±14.7; P=.07), higher lactate (5.9±2.7 vs 7.3±3.1; P<.01), lower albumin (34.3±8.3 vs 25.6±7.1; P<.0001), higher INR (1.4±0.6 vs 2.4±1.9; P<.0001), ED intubation (21% vs 56%; P<.0001), and intensive care unit admission (41% vs 78%; P<.0001). The regression model found that albumin of 27g/L or less (odds ratio [OR], 1.8; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.05-3.36), INR 1.3 or greater (OR, 8.3; 95% CI, 3.35-20.51), and ED intubation (OR, 5.6; 95% CI, 2.56-12.35) predicted mortality. The area under the curve for the MISSED score was 0.78 (95% CI, 0.73-0.85).
The MISSED score is useful for predicting mortality in ED patients with severe sepsis.
急诊科严重脓毒症死亡率(MISSED)评分是一种新提出的评分系统。本研究的目的是确定MISSED评分是否可推广至一家城市三级医疗中心医院。
这是一项于2012年7月至2014年6月进行的回顾性病历审查。纳入标准包括成年急诊科(ED)严重脓毒症患者,定义为乳酸水平4mmol/L或更高。使用χ²检验、t检验和逻辑回归分析人口统计学、乳酸、国际标准化比值(INR)、白蛋白、重症监护病房入住情况和急诊科插管情况。MISSED评分使用白蛋白27g/L或更低、INR 1.3或更高以及年龄65岁或以上这些变量进行计算,并使用曲线下面积进行分析。主要结局是院内死亡率。
共有182例患者符合纳入标准,死亡率为32%。死亡组患者年龄更大(58.1±17.2对62.7±14.7;P = 0.07),乳酸水平更高(5.9±2.7对7.3±3.1;P < 0.01),白蛋白更低(34.3±8.3对25.6±7.1;P < 0.0001),INR更高(1.4±0.6对2.4±1.9;P < 0.0001),急诊科插管比例更高(21%对56%;P < 0.0001),重症监护病房入住比例更高(41%对78%;P < 0.0001)。回归模型发现白蛋白27g/L或更低(比值比[OR],1.8;95%置信区间[CI],1.05 - 3.36)、INR 1.3或更高(OR,8.3;95% CI,3.35 - 20.51)以及急诊科插管(OR,5.6;95% CI,2.56 - 12.35)可预测死亡率。MISSED评分的曲线下面积为0.78(9% CI,0.73 - 0.85)。
MISSED评分有助于预测急诊科严重脓毒症患者的死亡率。
