Predictors of ICU Mortality in Septic Patients in a Resource-Limited African Setting: A Prospective Multicenter Cohort Study in Lubumbashi, DRC

2025-12-01

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Sepsis remains a leading cause of intensive care unit (ICU) mortality globally, with the highest burden observed in low- and middle-income countries where diagnostic capacity, timely referral, and access to organ support are limited. However, commonly used prognostic tools rely on laboratory and monitoring resources that are often unavailable in such settings. This study aime...
