Implication

Retrospective analysis identifies CRP/albumin ratio and APACHE II score as mortality predictors in elderly sepsis patients, suggesting a tool for clinical decision-making.

Key Points

  • The CRP/albumin ratio is independently associated with mortality in elderly sepsis patients.
  • Overall mortality rate among the studied geriatric population was 66.9%, highlighting significant risks.
  • Multivariate analysis found CRP/albumin ratio and APACHE II score as the strongest predictors of mortality.
  • The use of accessible inflammatory biomarkers can assist in effective risk stratification and management in ICUs.
