Predictive value of blood gas parameters and hematologic indices on survival in critically ill sepsis patients

Low pH and high lactate levels were the strongest predictors of mortality in sepsis patients, highlighting the prognostic value of simple blood gas parameters, especially where advanced diagnostics are limited. Hematological indices showed no significant association with mortality. pH and lactate should be prioritized in clinical decision-making for sepsis patients.

Abstract

Low pH and high lactate levels were the strongest predictors of mortality in sepsis patients, highlighting the prognostic value of simple blood gas parameters, especially where advanced diagnostics are limited. Hematological indices showed no significant association with mortality. pH and lactate should be prioritized in clinical decision-making for sepsis patients.
