| Abstract | Background: Thrombomodulin (TM) is a type-1 trans-membrane glycoprotein on endothelial cells which is known to be involved in various biochemical pathways. TM can be detected in biological fluids such as blood and urine under many forms. Soluble thrombomodulin (sTM), consist of various particles of TM, is the predominant agent which is created by enzymatic or chemical catalysis of the whole protein under divergent conditions. TM plays a vital role in protein C system and is crucial in the pathogenesis of Sepsis. Objective: To identify the serum level of soluble thrombomodulin (sTM) in groups of patients: sepsis and septic shock including their survival and fatal in-hospital outcome; and validate the death prediction of serum sTM in patients with sepsis. Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted in 63 patients who were diagnosed with sepsis, septic shock according to Sepsis 3 criteria at the ICU Department of Hue Central Hospital, Vietnam, from 3/2022 to 3/2023. Results: Twenty participants developed septic shock (31.7%), morality within 28-days was 19 patients (30.2%), 22 patients complicated with acute kidney injury that necessitated renal replacement therapy (34.9%), 30 patients required mechanical ventilation (47.6%), the median length of ICU stay was 8 (3-28) days. Serum level of lactate and creatinine were significantly higher in septic shock group compared with sepsis and survival group (p<0.05). The median sTM level in septic shock group and fatal group were 4.68(3.38-6.46) ng/mL and 4.68 (1.69-6.46) ng/mL, respectively. These results were significantly higher than sepsis group [3.62 (1.51-1.94) ng/mL] and survival group [3.73 (1.51-5.9) ng/mL] (p<0.05). The death predictive power of DIC score, APACHE II score, creatinine, sTM and SOFA presented with AUC values of 0.723, 0.726, 0.777, 0.803 and 0.807, respectively. There were no significant difference of serum level IL-6 and PCT between survival and fatal group. The median DIC score in fatal group was 7 (3-7), which was significantly higher than survival group 4 (2-7) (p= 0.001). Conclusion: Sepsis is a common diagnosis among ICU settings which links the critically ill patients to higher complications and mortalities. Serum level of sTM in septic shock and fatal groups were significantly higher than sepsis and survival groups. sTM is a reliable marker and should be used in predict severity and mortality in sepsis patients. |
