Popis: Background and Objectives: Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is a life-threatening disease that requires early diagnosis and treatment. It is known that a positive culture result for SBP, which is a common reason for admission to the emergency department, is related to the severity and prognosis of the disease. However, as it is not possible to determine the culture result in the early stage of the disease, different methods are required to predict prognosis in the emergency department. This study was conducted to evaluate the success of the SII, SIRI, NLR and PLR in predicting culture results, intensive care needs and mortality in patients with SBP admitted to the emergency department. Materials and Methods: This study was a retrospective, observational study. Patients with SBP who applied to the emergency department were included in this study. Pregnant women, patients with a malignancy, patients with another infection and patients with liver failure were excluded from this study. Data were analyzed in terms of culture results, the need for intensive care and mortality development. Analyses were performed using SPSS version 26. Results are presented with a 95% confidence interval. A p value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Participant data were analyzed using the independent samples t-test or the Mann–Whitney U test based on normality, and ROC analyses were conducted to assess test accuracies and determine cut-off values. Results: A total of 275 patients were included in this study. Although the culture results of 183 patients were positive, 92 were negative. The SII, NLR and PLR were found to be significantly higher in culture-positive patients (p < 0.001, p = 0.013 and p = 0.002, respectively). The SII and NLR were found to be significantly higher in patients with high mortality (p < 0.001 and p = 0.017, respectively). Conclusions: This study showed that the SII, NLR and PLR may be useful in predicting culture positivity and prognosis in SBP patients in the emergency department.
