Epidemiology of β-blocker use among critically iII patients during and after septic shock

Abstract   Introduction β-Blockers are used widely in the outpatient care of chronic disease, but less is known about how to restart chronic therapy during and after hospitalization for septic shock [1, 2]. We sought to characterize the epidemiology of β-blocker treatment during and after septic shock among patients administered chronic β-blocker therapy in the year […]

Investigating computational models for diagnosis and prognosis of sepsis based on clinical parameters: Opportunities, challenges, and future research directions

  Abstract This study investigates the use of computational frameworks for sepsis. We consider two dimensions for investigation – early diagnosis of sepsis (EDS) and mortality prediction rate for sepsis patients (MPS). We concentrate on the clinical parameters on which sepsis diagnosis and prognosis are currently done, including customized treatment plans based on historical data of

Do prolonged infusions of β-lactam antibiotics improve outcomes in critically ill patients with sepsis? It is time to say yes

Abstract Sepsis remains an important global health problem and a leading cause of death in critically ill patients worldwide [1]. The β-lactam antibiotics are widely used as an important component of antibiotic therapy for patients with sepsis. The bactericidal activity of β-lactam antibiotics is typically time-dependent, and their clinical effectiveness is affected by the duration
