Popis: Introduction: Sepsis is common and associated with high morbidity and mortality; novel prognostic biomarkers are needed. The association of myocardial injury with mortality in sepsis has not been fully characterized. Hypothesis: We hypothesized that elevated plasma high-sensitivity troponin I (hs-TnI) would be associated with 60-day mortality in patients with sepsis and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Methods: We conducted a retrospective multicenter cohort study of subjects from the MI-ARDS study with ARDS and sepsis. The exposure variable was plasma hs-TnI on intubation (Day 0) and Day 3. Hs-TnI was measured using Abbott Laboratories’ ARCHITECT STAT assay. Patients were divided into four hs-TnI (ng/L) groups (Grp): GrpA: th percentile of population), GrpC: ≥26-5 times ULN). The primary outcome was 60-day mortality. We determined the association between hs-TnI and mortality using Cox proportional hazards models. Results: Of 320 subjects, there were 15 (4%) in GrpA, 97 (30%) in GrpB, 88 (28%) in GrpC, and 120 (38%) in GrpD. Mean age was 50 years and 172 subjects (54%) required vasopressors. Higher plasma levels of hs-TnI were associated with higher SOFA score and creatinine, and more vasopressor use. Overall mortality was 33%. There was no significant difference in 60-day survival between clinical categories of Day 0 hs-TnI (Fig 1-A). Rising troponin between Day 0 and Day 3 was associated with a higher risk of mortality after adjusting for age, sex, trial assignment, and SOFA score (HR: 1.75, CI: 1.11-2.77, p=0.02) (Fig 1-B), and additionally adjusting for Day 0 hs-TnI (HR: 1.72, CI: 1.03-2.85, p=0.04). Conclusions: Initial hs-TnI in patients with sepsis and ARDS was not associated with mortality. Increase in hs-TnI of at least 20% by Day 3 was associated with 60-day mortality. Future studies should assess mechanism and treatment of myocardial injury in sepsis.
