Development of a novel clinical prediction model for sepsis related mortality by combining NEWS, PIRO and lactate by Ozge Kurtkulagi, Ece Unal Cetin, Fatih Kamis, Murat Das, Esen Simsek, Ozgur Kurtkulagi, Adil Ugur Cetin, Yavuz Beyazit

“…Pairwise analyses demonstrated that adding lactate to the base model significantly improved predictive accuracy (DBA: −0.103, p = 0.003), and incorporating lactate into a model already including NEWS further enhanced its predictive value (DBA: −0.042, p = 0.037). In conclusion, serum lactate measured at initial ICU admission provides valuable prognostic information for predicting 28-day mortality in sepsis patients. …”
