A Transcriptomic Severity Metric That Predicts Clinical Outcomes in Critically Ill Surgical Sepsis Patients
OBJECTIVES:. Clinically deployable methods for the rapid and accurate prediction of sepsis severity that could elicit a meaningful change in clinical practice are currently lacking. We evaluated a whole-blood, multiplex host-messenger RNA expression metric, Inflammatix-Severity-2, for identifying se...

Using multivariate logistic regression analysis, only combining the Charlson comorbidity index (area under the receiver operating curve 0.80) or Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (area under the receiver operating curve 0.81) with Inflammatix-Severity-2 significantly improved prediction of adverse clinical outcomes, and combining with the Charlson comorbidity index for predicting 30-day mortality (area under the receiver operating curve 0.79).

OBJECTIVES:. Clinically deployable methods for the rapid and accurate prediction of sepsis severity that could elicit a meaningful change in clinical practice are currently lacking. We evaluated a whole-blood, multiplex host-messenger RNA expression metric, Inflammatix-Severity-2, for identifying septic, hospitalized patients’ likelihood of 30-day mortality, development of chronic critical illness, discharge disposition, and/or secondary infections.
DESIGN:. Retrospective, validation cohort analysis.
SETTING:. Single, academic health center ICU.
PATIENTS:. Three hundred thirty-five critically ill adult surgical patients with sepsis.
INTERVENTIONS:. None.
MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS:. Whole blood was collected in PAXgene Blood RNA collection tubes at 24 hours after sepsis diagnosis and analyzed using a custom 29-messenger RNA classifier (Inflammatix-Severity-2) in a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments certified diagnostic laboratory using the NanoString FLEX platform. Among patients meeting Sepsis-3 criteria, the Inflammatix-Severity-2 severity score was significantly better (p < 0.05) at predicting secondary infections (area under the receiver operating curve 0.71) and adverse clinical outcomes (area under the receiver operating curve 0.75) than C-reactive protein, absolute lymphocyte counts, total WBC count, age, and Charlson comorbidity index (and better, albeit nonsignificantly, than interleukin-6 and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II).
