Abstract
- Introduction: Sepsis is one of the major diseases that seriously threatens human health, and its incidence and in-hospital morbidity and mortality rates remain high. Applying metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) technology to analyze the differences in pathogenic profiles and clinical factors in patients surviving and dying from sepsis combined with pulmonary infections provides diagnostic value and application for clinical purposes.Methods: Sixty-three BALF samples from patients with sepsis combined with pulmonary infection from Fuqing Hospital Affiliated to Fujian Medical University were collected, and all of them were tested by simultaneous mNGS and conventional microbial combined test (CMT) to compare the pathogenic profiles and clinical indices of patients who survived and died of sepsis combined with pulmonary infection and to further compare the diagnostic differences between mNGS and CMT in patients who survived and died of sepsis combined with pulmonary infection. We analyzed the diagnostic value of mNGS for sepsis combined with pulmonary infection.Results: A total of 141 strains of pathogens were isolated from 63 samples of patients with sepsis combined with pneumonia at suspected infection sites, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia are predominant, and higher ApacheII, LAC, P and PT are all risk factors affecting the death of septic patients.Conclusion: Applying the mNGS method to patients with sepsis combined with pneumonia can improve the positive detection rate of pathogenic microorganisms and focus on death-related risk factors such as pathogenic bacteria species as well as clinical laboratory indices, which can guide clinicians to take appropriate measures to treat patients with sepsis and reduce the occurrence of death.
