Evaluation and treatment of sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction: a systematic study / 中华危重病急救医学

ABSTRACT

Sepsis is defined as a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. The early mortality of patients with sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction (SMD) is higher than those with normal cardiac function, and the long-term prognosis is worse. Therefore, early detection of SMD and timely intervention can reduce mortality and improve prognosis. This review focused on the progress in evaluation and treatment of SMD, with a view to provide some ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of SMD.
