  Background: To determine the prediction of mortality and to develop a mathematical model of abdominal sepsis designed to predict early mortality in severe patients, to be able to select patients for individual surgical treatment that have ongoing infection and require re-laparotomy. Methods: It study was based on data from comparing known severity scores for two surgical strategies in 231 patients admitted for sepsis or septic shock. In these patients the severity of the condition was assessed at admission and after 72 hours in accordance with the objectives of the study, including objective laboratory parameters and known severity rating scores. Results: One operation was performed in 67.5% of patients; in 20.8% of patient.. Read More»
