Description

Prerequisites
Description

Hello, Recently, I have been trying to extract patients with septic shock in the ICU and have encountered some difficulties.
Previously, I saw an discussion on how to identify septic shock patients, and I was greatly inspired by it. However, I do not quite understand how the third standard is expressed in SQL code in mimic iv 2.2 database.
"3.Patients with septic shock can be identified with a clinical construct of sepsis with persisting hypotension requiring
vasopressors to maintain MAP ≥65 mm Hg and having a serum lactate level >2 mmol/L(18 mg/dL) despite adequate volume resuscitation."
May I ask if you can share similar SQL code examples for my reference?Thank you very much!

Research direction

Start with the MIMIC documentation and the related issue, Onset time of septic shock #576, to understand the existing septic-shock definition and MIMIC-IV 2.2 data structures. Determine whether the requested SQL example belongs in an existing query or documentation location; done means providing a reviewed, reproducible example that addresses the third criterion and is consistent with the documented data.
