PREDICTION OF PROGNOSIS IN CRITICALLY ILL PATIENTS:COMPARISON OF INTRAMUCOSAL pH ADN NEW SIMPLIFIED SEVERITY SCORE(SAPSⅡ) / 解放军医学杂志

ABSTRACT

In 87 ICU patients intramucosal pH (pHi) was measured, and the new simplified acute physiology score (SAPSⅡ) was calculated within the first 24h ICU admission. Eleven(12 6%) patients died in the ICU.The nonsurvivors had a relatively lower pHi(7 03?0 27) and a higher SAPSⅡ(45?11 77),while the svrvivors had a higher pHi (7 42?0 13) and a lower SAPSⅡ(19 58?10 32).The difference was statistically significant( P
