Purpose: To derive a prediction equation for 30-day mortality in sepsis using a multi-marker approach and compare its performance to the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score. Methods: This study included 159 septic patients admitted to an intensive care unit. Leukocytes count, procalcit...
