Abstract
Septic patients with very low vitamin D (VD) levels are expected to most benefit from supplementation strategies but few data are available in this specific population.[1]
Highlights
Septic patients with very low vitamin D (VD) levels are expected to most benefit from supplementation strategies but few data are available in this specific population [1]
Our results suggest that in critically ill septic patients undetectable VD levels at ICU admission may be a major determinant of clinical outcome
170 blood samples were obtained from 107 patients
Summary
Septic patients with very low vitamin D (VD) levels are expected to most benefit from supplementation strategies but few data are available in this specific population [1]. Clinical outcome of septic patients with undetectable vitamin D levels at ICU admission Introduction Septic patients with very low vitamin D (VD) levels are expected to most benefit from supplementation strategies but few data are available in this specific population [1]. Objectives Our purpose is to investigate the clinical/epidemiological profile and sepsis-related outcome of critically ill septic patients with undetectable VD levels at ICU admission.
