CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS, LABORATORY AND ETIOLOGY OF SEPTIC SHOCK IN NATIONAL HOSPITAL FOR TROPICAL DISEASES
Main Article Content
Abstract
Septic shock is a disease with a high mortality rate, identifying the cause is very important in early treatment with antibiotics. Objectives: Describe the clinical manifestations and determine the cause of sepsis leading to septic shock. Methods: Prospective, describe the clinical symptoms and determine the cause of the disease by blood culture. Results: The disease mainly affects men (71.4%). The mean age of the study group was 55±15.6 years old. 50% of patients have impaired consciousness. Most had abnormal white blood count (61.2%), and inflammatory index CRP increased > 40 mg/L (88.2%). The primary source of infection was abdominal (36.7%), respiratory (26.5%), and unknown source of infection (23.5%). The causative agents of the disease were E. coli (accounting for 33.4%), S. suis and K. pneumonia, B. pseudomallei accounted for 13.3%, and S. aureus and Salmonella 6.7%. Conclusion: Inflammatory indicators and metabolic acidosis are common clinical manifestations. Gram-negative bacteria are the main cause of disease
