Abstract | Lean body mass is a significant component of survival from sepsis. Several equations can be used for calculating lean body mass based on age, sex, body weight, and height. We hypothesized that lean body mass is a better predictor of outcomes than the body mass index (BMI). This study used a multicenter cohort study database. The inclusion criteria were age ≥18 years and a diagnosis of sepsis or septic shock. BMI was classified into four categories: underweight (<18.5 kg/m |
