Tóm tắt

Abstract Objective Sepsis is a syndrome of life-threatening organ dysfunction. This study aimed to determine whether presepsin is a useful predictor of septic acute kidney injury (AKI), acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), and shock in very-old sepsis patients aged 75 years in intensive care units (ICUs). Results A total of 83 adult patients diagnosed with sepsis were prospectively examined and divided into two groups: those aged 75 years and older (over 75 group) and those aged younger than 75 years (under 75 group). Presepsin values were measured after ICU admission. Inflammation-based prognostic scores were also examined. For category classification, total scores (“inflammation-presepsin scores [iPS]”) were calculated. Presepsin values, inflammation-based prognostic scores, and iPS were compared between patients with septic AKI, ARDS, DIC, or shock and those without these disorders in the over 75 and under 75 groups. Areas under the curve of presepsin for predicting septic AKI and ARDS in the over 75 group were both > 0.7, which were significantly higher than those in the under 75 group. In conclusion, presepsin is a more useful predictor of septic AKI and ARDS for very-old sepsis patients (over 75 years) than for younger sepsis patients (under 75 years).
