ABSTRACT: Background
The prognostic value of body temperature in sepsis-induced coagulopathy (SIC) remains unclear. In this study we aimed to investigate the association between temperature and mortality among SIC patients.Methods
We analyzed data for 9,860 SIC patients from an intensive care database. Patients were categorized by maximum temperature in the first 24 hours into the following: ≤36.0°C; 36.0-37.0°C; 37.0-38.0°C; 38.0-39.0°C; and ≥39.0°C. The primary outcome was 28-day mortality. We used multivariate regression to analyze the temperature-mortality association.Results
The 37.0-38.0°C, 38.0-39.0°C and ≥39.0°C groups correlated with lower 28-day mortality (adjusted HR 0.70, 0.76 and 0.72, respectively), while the <36.0°C group correlated with higher mortality compar
