作者分析1985年6月~1988年12月入加强治疗病房(ITU)危重病人763例的死亡原因。经过1~4.5年随访,到1990年1月1日共死亡180例,其中24%经尸解证实死因。作者将达些病例分为三组:A组直接死于 ITU 住院时的疾病;B 组死于与 ITU 住院疾病有关的原因;C 组死亡原因与 ITU 住院疾病无关。根据急性生理学和慢性健康估计(APACHEII)的健康评定标准对疾病严重程度进行评分。此763例病人年龄超过55岁者占52%,出院死亡率随年龄增大而上升。APACHEII 评分的中间值为13(12~14),
The authors analyzed the causes of death in 763 critically ill patients in Intensive Care Unit (ITU) from June 1985 to December 1988. After 1 to 4.5 years of follow-up, to January 1, 1990 a total of 180 cases of death, of which 24% confirmed by autopsy. The authors divided these cases into three groups: Group A die directly from the hospital in the ITU; Group B died from the cause of the hospitalization with the ITU; Group C causes of death have nothing to do with the ITU in-hospital disease. The severity of the disease was scored according to the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Assessment (APACHEII) health assessment criteria. The 763 patients aged over 55 accounted for 52% of discharged mortality increased with age. The median APACHEII score was 13 (12-14)
