Risk Assessment Tool for Patients with Sepsis

摘要

The present invention provides a prognostic and mortality risk assessment method for patients with sepsis. The method involves measuring a combination of cell-free DNA (cfDNA), protein C, lactate, platelet count, creatinine level, and Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) and analyzing the measured values using a complementary log-log model to determine the daily and 28-day (or other fixed term) probabilities of dying for septic patients and a binomial logit model to distinguish septic patients from non-septic patients.
