Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate the relationship between vasoactive inotropic score (VIS) and clinical outcomes in severe pneumonia patients with sepsis undergoing ECMO.
  • Analysis of data from the Chinese Society of ExtraCorporeal Life Support (CSECLS) Registry.
  • Assessment of the correlation between VIS score and clinical outcomes.
  • Focus on adult patients with severe pneumonia and sepsis.
  • A linear correlation exists between VIS score and the risk of in-hospital death.
  • Higher VIS scores are associated with increased risk of ECMO weaning failure.
  • VIS may serve as a practical tool for risk stratification of adverse clinical outcomes.

Abstract

Linear correlation existed between VIS score and the risk of in-hospital death as well as the risk of ECMO weaning failure in adult patients with severe pneumonia combined with sepsis. With the increase of VIS score, the risk of in-hospital death and ECMO weaning failure also increased. VIS may be a useful practical tool for risk stratification of adverse clinical outcomes.
