Analysis of prognostic factors in patients with Vibrio vulnificus sepsis / 中华急诊医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the prognostic factors of patients with Vibrio vulnificus sepsis. Methods:The clinical data of 67 patients with Vibrio vulnificus sepsis from January 2008 to December 2019 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. Univariate analysis was used to compare the differences in general information, clinical manifestations, admission laboratory indicators, antibiotics and surgery between the death group and the cured group. Then the factors with significant difference in univariate analysis were included in multivariate analysis, and the factors of prognosis were obtained. Results:Univariate analysis showed that there were significant difference in liver disease, admission with hypotension shock, multiple limb injuries; admission leukocytes, platelets, pH value, albumin, lactic acid, aspartate aminotransferase, creatinine, procalcitonin, creatine kinase, activated partial thromboplastin time, prothrombin time between the death group and the cured group (all P <0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that admission lactate ( OR=0.628, 95% CI 0.461-0.855, P=0.003), albumin ( OR=1.330, 95% CI1.062-1.667, P=0.013), creatine kinase ( OR=0.999, 95% CI 0.998-1.000, P=0.016) and admission surgery time ( OR=0.118, 95% CI 0.015-0.938, P=0.043) were risk factors of the prognosis. Patients with high lactate, creatine kinase and low albumin at admission indicate poor prognosis; patients with admission surgery time≤ 12 h have better prognosis. Conclusion:For the treatment of patients with Vibrio vulnificus sepsis, medical staff should dynamically evaluate these prognostic factors in the early stage, and early surgical treatment should be adopted to improve the prognosis of patients.
