Abstract
In summary, this retrospective observational study aimed to evaluate the potential of fibrinogen as a predictor of infection in patients who remain in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for longer than seven days. Our findings indicate that fibrinogen can not be reliably used as a predictor of infection development in this patient population. The data showed a significant correlation between fibrinogen and C-reactive protein (CRP), but no significant correlation was found between fibrinogen and leukocytes or procalcitonin (PCT). The small sample size of this study restricts the generalizability of the results. However, these findings provide a valuable foundation for further research. Future studies with a greater sample sizes are necessary to explore these relationships more comprehensively. Such research is crucial for developing better strategies to predict and manage infections in patients with prolonged ICU stays, ultimately improving patient outcomes in critical care settings.
