Changes of blood lactate levels in children with severe sepsis and its relationship with clinical prognosis / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the change of blood lactate level in children with severe sepsis,and its relationship with clinical prognosis.Methods 90 children with severe sepsis who treated in our hospital from February 201 3 to May 201 4 were selected as the study subjects.According to the prognosis of children,they were divided into survival group and death group,45 cases in each group.The blood lactate levels at different time points, blood lactate clearance rates between the two groups at different time points as well as fibrin,oxygenation index and D -dimer levels were compared after admission.Results After treatment,the fibrin,oxygenation index and D -dimer levels in the two groups were improved.The fibrin and D -dimer levels in the survival group[(2.71 ±0.31 )ng/mL, (0.89 ±0.1 0)mg/L)]were lower than those in the death group[(2.89 ±0.21 )ng/mL,(1 .26 ±0.1 8)mg/L)],the differences were significant(t =3.224,P =0.001 ;t =1 2.053,P =0.000).The oxygenation index of the survival group[(1 96.23 ±1 4.69)mmHg)]was higher than that of the death group [(1 80.23 ±21 .03 )mmHg)],the difference was significant(t =4.1 84,P =0.000).The EGOT compliance rate,APACHE Ⅱscore and MODS incidence rate of survival group were significantly lower than those of the death group,the differences were significant(t =7.200,P =0.007;t =9.1 49,P =0.000;t =29.298,P =0.000).The blood lactate levels at each time points in the survival group were significantly lower than the death group,the differences were statistically significant(t =50.543, P =0.000;t =33.932,P =0.000;t =1 7.91 5,P =0.000;t =28.703,P =0.000).The 6 h,24 h blood lactate clearance rates≥1 0% of the survival group (73.33%,80.00%)were significantly higher than those of the death group(37.78%,44.44%),the differences were significant(χ2 =1 1 .520,P =0.000;χ2 =1 2.1 00,P =0.000). Conclusion Lactate level in children with sepsis is an important indicator of prognosis in children with severe sepsis,with guidance for the treatment of children with sepsis.
