About

Sepsis is responsible for one in three patient deaths. Understanding the severity of the disease, directing medications, prognosticating, and communicating with family members depend on the ability to predict outcomes in a patient presenting with sepsis in the ICU. The outcome of mortality reflects the caliber of ICU treatment. This is a prospective observational study that will include all patients diagnosed with sepsis for point-of-care ultrasonography within 24 hours of admission to the ICU from April 26, 2023, to March 30, 2024, and create a model that will predict 28 day outcome in these patients.
