Abstract
• Introduction
Sepsis is a life-threatening condition from a dysregulated immune response to infection, potentially leading to organ failure and death. Common causes include bacterial infections in the lungs, abdomen, and urinary tract, with risk factors like age, chronic illness, and immune suppression. Septic shock cause multi-organ failure, dangerously low blood pressure and high mortality, marked by fever, tachycardia, and hypo perfusion. Complicated by ARDS , AKI, and encephalopathy. Survivors often face long-term health issues, frequent readmissions, and reduced quality of life. Severity of septic shock can be predicted using scores like APACHE II and SOFA. Cardiac Power Output, a marker of heart function, shows promise in predicting mortality, especially in cardiogenic shock, and may aid in risk assessment for septic shock.
• Aim of the work: detect the reliability of cardiac power output measured by Echocardiogram as a predictor of disease severity in patients with septic shock by comparing it with other prognostic scores (SOFA SCORE and APACHE II SCORE).
