Identification of Risk Factors and Mortality Score Values Predicting Mortality in Pneumonia Patients Monitored in Intensive Care Units
Abstract
Aim: Predicting the mortality risk of pneumonia patients in the intensive care unit is an important step in the treatment process. A number
of scoring systems have been developed to assess the severity of patients and predict prognosis. The aim of this study was to determine
the risk factors predicting mortality and mortality score values of pneumonia patients in intensive care unit in clinical prognostic evaluation.
Material and Methods: It was a single-center and retrospective study. Mechanical ventilation, hemodialysis requirement, inotrope support,
chest tube insertion, duration of intensive care unit stay, length of hospital stay, and 6-month mortality rates were recorded. SOFA, APACHE
II and PSI, CURB-65 and I-ROAD scores were calculated. Procalcitonin, C-reactive protein, albumin, creatinine, urea and lactate values
were evaluated by scoring.
Results: Of the 143 patients, 94 (65.7%) were discharged (Group 1: survivors), while 49 (34.2%) died (Group 2: exitus). Urea and lactate
showed a stronger correlation with mortality (p<0.001), while creatinine showed a weaker correlation (p=0.011). CURB-65 and PSI
demonstrated a strong association with mortality (p<0.001), while I-ROAD supported this association more weakly (p=0.046). SOFA and
APACHE II did not show a significant association with mortality (p>0.05). Patients receiving inotropic support had a significantly higher risk
of mortality (p<0.001), however, chest tube placement and hemodialysis did not have a statistically significant impact on mortality (p=0.943
and p=0.297, respectively).
Conclusion: Receiving inotropic support, high urea, creatinine and lactate levels during hospitalization were found to be risk factors for
predicting pneumonia mortality in intensive care unit patients. PSI and CURB-65 may be guiding in the prediction of mortality and selection
of critical patients.
