INTRODUCTION Even in the developed countries, the frequency of

sepsis is increasing.

Sepsis is the most common cause of death in non-coronary intensive care units (*).

There is not enough data available concerning the epidemiology of sepsis in our country.

OBJECTIVE

We aimed to investigate the frequency and general characteristics of the severe sepsis and septic shockpatients in our unit.

METHOD The records of all patients admitted to the medical ICU of

Hacettepe university hospital between 1st January 2007 and

31st December 2014 were retrospectively reviewed from

unit’s database and hospital electronic records. Severe

sepsis and septic shock patients were included

Data are presented as number of cases (%) and median

(minimum–maximum).

RESULTS Over the 8 year period, 1507 patients were admitted to

ICU.

Of those,104 patients who had less than 24 hours of hospitalization were excluded.

464 (33.1%) of 1403 patients were admitted to ICU withsevere sepsis and septic shock.

224 (48.3 %) patients died in the ICU.

269 (58 %) patients died during the hospital stay.

Mean expected mortality rate adjusted for APACHE II score was 48.1%.

DISCUSSION

Frequency of severe sepsis/ septic shock was 33 % in our unit’s large patient sample.

Frequency of severe sepsis was detected as 30% forEuropean Intensive Care Units by Vincent et al (SOAP trial).

Vincent JL, Sakr Y, Sprung CL, Reinhart MR, et al. Sepsis in European Intensive Care Units: Result of the

SOAP Study. Crit Care Med, 2006; 34: 344-353

Mortality of patients with severe sepsis and septicshock was found as 48.3 % in our intensive care unit.

In SOAP trial, mortality of severe sepsis and septicshock was 32% and 54 % respectively

The most common cause of sepsis was respiratory tract(37.9 %), and the most frequent isolated agents weregram negative microorganisms.

The most common cause of sepsis was found as respiratory tract (40 %), and the most common agentwas found as gram negative bacterias by Mayr et al.

In our unit, there was differences in the frequency of sepsis over the 8 years but significant change was not observed in ICU and hospital mortality.

CONCLUSION Severe sepsis/ septic shock remains a common disease

with high mortality in ICU.

In our counrty, there is a need for prospective multi-

center studies about sepsis epidemiology.
