The aim of our work was to assess the value of STE in the diagnosis of subclinical ventricular dysfunction and as a prognostic index in sepsis patients.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Patients and Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>An observational prospective study involving critically ill patients aged \u2265 18 years diagnosed with sepsis or septic shock. All patients were subjected to full history-taking, clinical assessment, and scoring system, including Acute Physiology and Chronic Health (APACHE) II score and quick sequential organ failure assessment score. Investigations were done for all patients, including laboratory (complete blood count, C-reactive protein, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide [NT-proBNP], and troponin-I and serum lactate level), ECG, and echocardiographic examination (conventional and speckle tracking) for measurement of global left ventricular strain.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study involved 50 patients, nine patients with sepsis and 41 patients with septic shock. Regarding cardiac biomarkers, the mean value of troponin-I was 0.18 \u00b1 0.05 ng\/L and for NT-proBNP was 1228.2 \u00b1 832.9 pmol\/L. All patients in the study had elevated lactate levels. There was a significant correlation between global longitudinal strain (GLS) and troponin I, NT-proBNP, and lactate levels after 3 days of admission. GLS, lactate, NT-proBNP, troponin levels, and APACHE II Score were significant predictors of mortality with a sensitivity of 76.5%, 88.2%, 88.2%, 76.5%, and 88.2%, respectively.<\/jats:p>\n
