Description

Background: Multiple organ failure (MOF) is a clinical syndrome that came to prominence in the 1970s.1 Its conception resulted from reports in the late 1960s which described remote organ failure, such as pulmonary and liver failure, as a consequence of severe sepsis. As there were limited studies on acute febrile illness and its association with MODS, we conducted this study in order of clinical features, etiology and outcome of MODS in patients with acute febrile illness. Material and Methods: A Hospital based prospective Observational study was conducted at Department of Medicine, tertiary care public hospital for period one year after Ethics committee permission. Total 100 patients were enrolled after matching inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: 16 to 25 years (46%) was the most common age group amongst study population with male predominance (81%). Fever (100%) was the most frequent Clinical features followed by Chills/Rigors (98%). Bleeding Manifestations was present in 19% of study population. Deranged creatinine was present in 29% of study population .Vivax Malaria (26%) was the most common Peripheral smear findings amongst study population followed by Falciparum Malaria (1%) and Mixed malaria (1%). INR was Deranged in 36 % of study population. On USG Abdomen/Pelvis, Hepatomegaly (17%) was the most frequent findings. Dengue (53%) was the most common cause of thrombocytopenia amongst study population followed by Malaria (27%), Leptospirosis (13%), Septicemia (4%), Enteric fever (3%). Blood Transfusion was given in 16% of study population. RDP, FFP, PCV and SDP were Blood Product Transfused amongst which RDP was the most common. 94% of the study population had Less than 10 days of hospital stay. 89% of the study population were alive while death was occurred in 11% of study population. Death occurred most commonly in Dengue (36.40%) and Leptospirosis (36.40%) each and septicemia (27.30%). The common causes of death were Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever, Leptospirosis with ARDS and septicemia with shock. Blood system (31%) was the most common system in MODS followed by kidney(30%), lungs (13%), liver (12%) and CNS (5%). Mortality was observed most commonly in patients with more than 3 organ involvement (54.5%) followed by three organ (36.4%) and two organ (9.1%). Conclusions: Most common etiology of MODS was Dengue and Leptospirosis and septicemia. Hematological system was the most common system in MODS followed by kidney, lungs, liver and CNS. Mortality in was observed most commonly in patients with more than 3 organ involvement followed by three organ and two organ. It was observed that as the number of organ involvement increases in MODS, the risk of mortality also increases.

 

 

Abstract (English)

Background: Multiple organ failure (MOF) is a clinical syndrome that came to prominence in the 1970s.1 Its conception resulted from reports in the late 1960s which described remote organ failure, such as pulmonary and liver failure, as a consequence of severe sepsis. As there were limited studies on acute febrile illness and its association with MODS, we conducted this study in order of clinical features, etiology and outcome of MODS in patients with acute febrile illness. Material and Methods: A Hospital based prospective Observational study was conducted at Department of Medicine, tertiary care public hospital for period one year after Ethics committee permission. Total 100 patients were enrolled after matching inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: 16 to 25 years (46%) was the most common age group amongst study population with male predominance (81%). Fever (100%) was the most frequent Clinical features followed by Chills/Rigors (98%). Bleeding Manifestations was present in 19% of study population. Deranged creatinine was present in 29% of study population .Vivax Malaria (26%) was the most common Peripheral smear findings amongst study population followed by Falciparum Malaria (1%) and Mixed malaria (1%). INR was Deranged in 36 % of study population. On USG Abdomen/Pelvis, Hepatomegaly (17%) was the most frequent findings. Dengue (53%) was the most common cause of thrombocytopenia amongst study population followed by Malaria (27%), Leptospirosis (13%), Septicemia (4%), Enteric fever (3%). Blood Transfusion was given in 16% of study population. RDP, FFP, PCV and SDP were Blood Product Transfused amongst which RDP was the most common. 94% of the study population had Less than 10 days of hospital stay. 89% of the study population were alive while death was occurred in 11% of study population. Death occurred most commonly in Dengue (36.40%) and Leptospirosis (36.40%) each and septicemia (27.30%). The common causes of death were Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever, Leptospirosis with ARDS and septicemia with shock. Blood system (31%) was the most common system in MODS followed by kidney(30%), lungs (13%), liver (12%) and CNS (5%).
