Validation of MPI and PIA II in two different groups of patients with secondary peritonitis.

Abstract

POSTOP group patients had higher MPI, lower PIA II and higher CPS values ending up with higher mortality. This may be because of the delay in diagnosis and treatment, resulting with higher organ failure rates. Generally the results of evaluations for MPI and PIA II are similar. When these two peritonitis scores are combined and used together in the form of CPS, all the parameters improve.
