Exclusion criteria:
Methodology:
After getting written informed consent from the patients or immediate
relatives, a detailed clinical examination was done in all patients. After
the diagnosis of sepsis was made in patients with the help of examination
and laboratory investigations, blood sample would be collected on day of
admission, on day 4 and on the day of discharge from the ICU or on the day of
death to determine serum total cholesterol and CRP levels. The increase
or decrease in cholesterol and CRP values would be compared with
outcome of the disease.
Data collection
Critically ill patients with bacteriologically documented infections would be
included in the study as soon as they meet at least two of the following criteria of
sepsis, defined by the American College of Chest Physicians/Society of Critical Care
Medicine Consensus Conference Committee : temperature higher than 38 °C or
lower than 36°C; heart rate (HR) greater than 90 beats per minute (bpm);
respiratory rate (RR) greater than 20 breaths per minute (breaths/min); arterial
carbon dioxide tension (PaCO2) lower than 32 mmHg; leukocyte count of greater
than 12 109 cells/L or less than 4 109 cells/L. In addition, at least one of the
following conditions would be required: hypoxemia (arterial oxygen
tension/inspired oxygen concentration [PaCO2/FIO2], b250); oliguria (urine output,
b0.5 mL/kg body weight for two h); lactic acidosis (lactate concentration, N2
mmol/L); thrombocytopenia,
(Platelet count, b100 109/L); or a recent change in mental status without sedation.
