Oct 12, 2021 · Overall, reduced RBC count has no diagnostic or prognostic power for sepsis. Basic CBC provides several parameters related to RBC characteristics, including hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit, mean cell (or corpuscular) volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean cell hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), and red distribution width (RDW).

The results showed that compared with high-dose hemoglobin, the low-dose group had a reduced risk of a poor prognosis of sepsis (OR = 1.78, 95 % CI: 1.27–2.48, P = 0.0008, Fig. 4 ). Further dose-response meta-analysis showed that the risk of poor prognosis of sepsis decreased with increasing hemoglobin.
Abstract. Sepsis in older adults has many challenges that affect rate of septic diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring parameters. Numerous age-related changes and comorbidities contribute to increased risk of infections in older adults, but also atypical symptomatology that delays diagnosis.

Feb 6, 2024 · Adults age 65 and older are 13 times more likely to be hospitalized with sepsis than people younger than 65.3 Although older adults (65+) tend to have more conditions that put them at greater risk of sepsis, the aging process itself is also a risk factor.4,5, 6.
Among adults aged 65 and over, sepsis-related death rates in 2019 increased with age; rates were about five times higher among adults aged 85 and over (750.0 per 100,000) compared with adults aged 65–74 (150.7).
