Abstract

To explore the death risk factors of septic myocardial depression (SMD) and their predictive effect, and to set up a death early-warning model. A retrospective analysis was conducted. The patients with SMD admitted to emergency department and rescue room of Beilun Branch of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University Medical College from January 2015 to November 2017 were enrolled. The patients were divided into survival group and non-survival group according to 28-day outcome, and the gender, age, and the initial examination parameters [white blood cell (WBC) count, neutrophil (Neut) count, activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), procalcitonin (PCT), D-dimer, C-reactive protein (CRP), cardiac troponin I (cTnI), N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), and left atrium diameter (LAD)] of both groups were compared. Binary logistic regression analysis was conducted on the factors with statistically significant difference analyzed in univariate analysis, and death early-warning model was set up subsequently. For parameters in early-warning model after variable screening, receiver operating characteristic curve (RO...Continue Reading
