Necrotising Soft Tissue Infections: A Single Center's Case Series. [PDF]

Int Wound J
ABSTRACT Necrotising soft tissue infection (NSTI) is a progressive disease with a time‐dependent prognosis; if not promptly treated, it can lead to significant morbidity as well as mortality. Early and aggressive surgical treatment is mandatory for appropriate management. This study reports the diagnostic and therapeutic pathway, surgical treatment and

Head-to-head comparison of pre-hospital qSOFA and lactate-qSOFA for predicting sepsis in patients with and without suspected infection. A multicenter prospective cohort study

, 2020
Introduction The aim of the study was to compare the Quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment tools (qSOFA), and Quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment-Lactate (LqSOFA) to detect pre-hospital sepsis among patients with or without suspicion of ...

Utility of quick sepsis-related organ failure assessment (qSOFA) to predict outcome in patients with pneumonia. [PDF]

, 2017
Despite on-going advances in medical treatment, the burden of disease of pneumonia remains high. We aimed to determine the association of the qSOFA score with in-hospital mortality, length of hospitalisation, and admission to the intensive care unit (ICU)

Validation of quick sequential organ failure assessment score for poor outcome prediction among emergency department patients with suspected infection [PDF]

Clinical and Experimental Emergency Medicine, 2019
Objective The quick sequential organ failure assessment (qSOFA) score, which includes mentation, systolic blood pressure, and respiratory rate, was developed to identify serious sepsis in out-of-hospital or emergency department (ED) settings.

NEWS2 is Superior to qSOFA in Detecting Sepsis with Organ Dysfunction in the Emergency Department [PDF]

, 2019
Early administration of antibiotics is associated with better survival in sepsis, thus screening and early detection for sepsis is of clinical importance.

Quantitative capillary refill time predicts sepsis in patients with suspected infection in the emergency department: an observational study

Journal of Intensive Care, 2019
Background Outcomes in emergent patients with suspected infection depend on how quickly clinicians evaluate the patients and start treatment. This study was performed to compare the predictive ability of the quantitative capillary refill time (Q-CRT) as ...
