Strandberg G, Walther S, Öhman CA, et al. - Researchers sought to inscribe mortality up to 1 year in Swedish intensive careunit (ICU) patients with and without sepsis via linking demographic and medical data for all registered adult general ICU patients admitted between 01‐01‐2008 and 30‐09‐2016 from the Swedish Intensive Care Registry with the National Patient Register for comorbidity data and the Cause of Death Register for death dates. Identification of 28,886 sepsis and 221,941 nonsepsis ICU patients was done. Analysis revealed high mortality in severe sepsis and septic shock; more than one in three patients died in 3 months after ICU admission. No convincing decrease in adjusted mortality was observed in Sweden 2008 ‐ 2016.
