Prognostic performance of the temperature- and age-modified shock index for children with sepsis and septic shock: a retrospective cohort study
Background Pediatric septic shock is associated with high mortality and morbidity rates. Lactate levels are
monitored to determine the quality of sepsis treatment; however, some rural hospitals have restricted access
to lactate measurements because…

Respiratory National Early Warning Score
for 28-day mortality prediction in suspected
sepsis patients in the emergency department
Background Most early warning scores were derived in heterogeneous acutely ill populations and are not
specifically tailored to patients with suspected sepsis in the emergency department (ED). In sepsis, respiratory rate
(RR) is frequently elevated…
