Circulating Biologically Active Adrenomedullin Predicts Organ Failure and Mortality in Sepsis [PDF]
, 2019 BACKGROUND: Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Biologically active adrenomedullin (bio-ADM) is an emerging biomarker for sepsis.
