Year: 2010

Type: conference-abstract

Abstract: Alterations in haemodynamic parameters in septic cardiomyopathy are usual. While patients with APACHE II score <15 have a low risk of death, patients with score ≥15 have one of >25%. In a subgroup of our monocentric observational ProFS study (depiction of patients with community-acquired sepsis in the emergency department), systolic and diastolic function were evaluated concerning patients risk of death.
