A prediction model for predicting the risk of acute respiratory distress syndrome in sepsis patients: a retrospective cohort study

Abstract

The risk of death in sepsis patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) was as high as 20–50%. Few studies focused on the risk identification of ARDS among sepsis patients. This study aimed to develop and validate a nomogram to predict the ARDS risk in sepsis patients based on the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV database.
