[A reevaluation of diagnostic efficacy of International Society of Thrombosis and Haemostasis and Japanese Association for Acute Medicine criteria for the diagnosis of sepsis disseminated intravascular coagulation].
Objective: To reevaluate the diagnostic efficacy of International Society of Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) and Japanese Association for Acute Medicine (JAAM) criteria for sepsis disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Methods: A total of 769 patients diagnosed as sepsis were enrolled in our study. Blood samples were collected within the first hour in ICU and the index of coagulation was detected. ⋯ Conclusions: According to the ISTH and JAAM diagnostic criteria, the diagnostic efficacy of PT and PLT is relatively high, which is associated with the severity of DIC. D-dimer and FDP have the high sensitivity but the specificity is poor. The diagnostic specificity of Fib is good, yet with low sensitivity and poor overall efficacy.

[The value of renal resistance index and urine oxygen pressure for prediction of acute kidney injury in patients with septic shock].
Objective: To explore the value of renal resistance index (RI) and urine oxygen pressure for early prediction of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with septic shock. Methods: Patients with septic shock were enrolled from August 2018 to November 2018 in intensive care unit (ICU) at Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Subjects' general information and AKI characteristics were assessed. ⋯ Conclusion: High RI and low urine oxygen pressure are independent risk factors for the development of AKI in patients with septic shock. The predictive cut-off values are 0.70 for RI and 48 mmHg for urine oxygen pressure. Combination of RI and urine oxygen pressure has a practical predictive value for AKI in patients with septic shock.
