Abstrakt: Background: Myocardial dysfunction is one of the mechanisms involved in the pathophysiology of septic shock. The role of troponin as a surrogate of myocardial injury in septic shock is still debated. The aim of this study was to assess the prognostic value of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) assay in predicting 28-day mortality in patients with septic shock. Materials and Methods: Prospective study including 75 patients with septic shock admitted to a medico-surgical ICU from January to December 2017. Patients under the age of 18 years, known pregnancy and patients in post-cardiac arrest were excluded. Clinical and demographic data including age, gender, comorbidities, SAPS II and SOFA scores were collected. Hs-cTnI was measured soon after admission and 12, 24, 48 and 72 after. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed to identify the most useful troponin I cut-off level for the prediction of 28-day mortality. A p <0.05 was considered significant. Results: Seventy-five (M/F = 53/22) patients with septic shock were included in the study. The median SOFA and SAPS II scores were 10 and 42, respectively. The median duration of mechanical ventilation was 8 days and the median length of ICU stay was 11 days. The 28-day mortality was 54.6%. We found a high prevalence (47%) of elevated hs-cTnI in patients with septic shock. Median hs-cTnI on admission in the whole group was 36 ng/L. The 28-day mortality was found to be related to age (p <0.001), SAPS II score (p = 0.001), mean arterial pressure (p = 0.038), lactate (p <0.001) and glomerular filtration rate (p <0.001). Hs-cTnI levels were significantly higher in non-survival group than survival one at all time points: H12 (p = 0.006), H24 (p = 0.003), H48 (p = 0.005) and H72 (p=0.001). In multivariate analysis, hs-cTnI at H72 was independently associated with 28-day mortality. Conclusion: Hs-cTnI elevation at 72 hours was associated with 28-day mortality in septic shock patients.
