Survival and risk factor analysis in patients with septic arthritis: a retrospective study of 192 cases
This study highlights a notably high mortality rate among vulnerable patients with SA, particularly those with pre-existing comorbidities. Recognizing and addressing these risk factors early could improve patient outcomes. These results unterscore the need for close monitoring of SA patients, particularly those with chronic organ conditions, and timely intervention for sepsis to reduce mortality risk.
