The Prognostic Assessment of Extubation in Aged Patients With Multiple Organ Dysfunction Syndrome

Key Technology Research of the Comprehensive Treatment of Multiple Organ Dysfunction Syndrome

The multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) has remained the major factor contributing to prolongation of intensive and mortality. It is reported that the mortality rates have varied between 20% and 100%, depending on number, severity, duration, type and combination, and definition of dysfunction. In our study, the investigators explore some comprehensive treatment technology to improved outcomes of MODS patients.

Inclusion Criteria:

• age > 60 years old;
• presence of altered organ function in an acutely ill patient such that homeostasis cannot be maintained without intervention;
• have trachea intubation after admitting to intensive care unit within 24 hours.

Exclusion Criteria:

• end stage multiple organ failure.
