Science

Objectives To delineate the clinical characteristics and investigate the determinants that may affect the prognosis of surgical patients with abdominal sepsis. Design A case-control study was nested in a cohort of surgical patients with abdominal sepsis between 2008 and 2022. We extracted patient’ medical records to execute descriptive statistical analyses. Multiple logistic regression models and subgroup analysis were employed to elucidate the risk factors of in-hospital mortality. Setting Two tertiary hospitals in China. Participants 476 surgical patients diagnosed with abdominal sepsis between 2008 and 2022 were analysed. Interventions None.
