Resumen
SUAREZ DOMINGUEZ, Rafael et al. Mortality prognosis factors due to secondary peritonitis in patients admitted in an intensive care unit. MEDISAN [online]. 2016, vol.20, n.10, pp. 2250-2257. ISSN 1029-3019.
An observational and analytic cases and controls study of 77 patients with acute secondary peritonitis, admitted in the Intensive Care Unit of "Dr. Ambrosio Grillo Portuondo" University Clinical Surgical Hospital in Santiago de Cuba was carried out, in the period of January, 2014 to same month of 2016, to identify the prognosis factors of mortality in them. A prevalence of perforations as cause of death and prevalence of the female sex in the dead patients were obtained among the main results. A high specificity for the Mannheim index was found and association didn't exist between the age, the necessity to repeat laparotomy, the sepsis presence and the metabolic and immunosuppressive diseases with the probability of dying. The prognosis factors with statistical significance related to the probability of dying due to a secondary peritonitis were the physical status, the preoperative time and the multiple organs dysfunction
