Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the correlation and predictive value of thromboelastography (TEG) in the severity and prognosis of patients with sepsis.Methods:Clinical data of 147 patients with sepsis admitted to Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January 2013 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Inflammation indicators and TEGt were performed within 24 h after admission, and APACHE Ⅱ score was evaluated. According to APACHE Ⅱ score, the patients were divided into the mild group and severe group. TEG indicators were compared between the two groups. Patients with sepsis were divided into the death group and survival group to assess the value of TEG for prognosis of patients with sepsis.Results:Compared with patients with mild sepsis, patients with severe sepsis had lower α angle ( P=0.015), longer K time ( P=0.015), and higher maximum amplitude ( P=0.045). The K time of the death group was significantly longer than that of the survival group. When K time ≥2.2 min (sensitivity 77.27% and specificity 95.2%), the risk of sepsis death was the highest ( P<0.001). Conclusions:Patients with severe sepsis show marked hypocoagulability, and K time has predictive value for the prognosis of patients with sepsis.
