Popis: | Background: To assess the association between serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels and mortality in intensive care unit patients. Materials & methods: A total of 1981 patients in the eICU Collaborative Research Database were divided into four groups according to quartiles of LDH levels. Logistic regressions were performed. Results: Elevated LDH levels were significantly associated with higher mortality (intensive care unit mortality: Q2 vs Q1: 1.046 [0.622–1.758]; Q3 vs Q1: 1.667 [1.029–2.699]; and Q4 vs Q1: 1.760 [1.092–2.839]). Similar results persisted in patients with different acute physiology and chronic health evaluation IV scores, and with or without sepsis. Conclusion: The serum LDH level may aid in the early identification of mortality risk in critically ill patients. |
