Authors: Patrick M. Honore, Rita Jacobs, Herbert D. Spapen

Published in: Annals of Intensive Care | Issue 1/2016

Excerpt

In this issue of Annals of Intensive Care, Van Regenmortel et al. report a significant association between hyperchloremia present on the first day of intensive care unit (ICU) admission and ICU and hospital mortality in a large cohort of ICU patients. However, chloride levels were significantly higher and mortality was lower in cardiac surgery patients than in the entire cohort [1]. …
