ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE:
This study aimed to determine the potential effects of angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2), von Willebrand factor (vWF), and extravascular lung water index (EVLWI) on the risk of mortality in sepsis patients with concomitant acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).METHODS:
This retrospective study recruited 41 sepsis patients with concomitant ARDS from January 2015 to June 2018. Data of Ang-2 and vWF levels, EVLWI, and sequential organ failure assessment scores were collected at 0, 24, and 48 h after admission to the hospital.RESULTS:
The length of intensive care unit stay (P = 0.041) and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation-2 (APACHE II) score (P = 0.003) were associated with the risk of mortality. Furthermore, increased Ang-2 levels and EVLWI at 24 h and 48 h were associated with an increased risk of mortality. Moreover, the APACHE II score at hospital admission significantly predicted the risk of mortality (area under the curve [AUC], 0.834; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.665-0.983). Finally, the models containing a combination of Ang-2 level and EVLWI at 24 h (AUC, 0.908; 95% CI, 0.774-0.996) and Ang-2 level and EVLWI at 48 h (AUC, 0.981; 95% CI, 0.817-1.000) had high diagnostic values for predicting risk of mortality.CONCLUSION:
The study findings indicate that Ang-2 levels and EVLWI at 24 h and 48 h after admission are significantly associated with the risk of mortality.Palabras clave
