Assessment of Inflammatory Scores in Severity Prediction for Elderly Patients with Odontogenic Infections
Odontogenic infections (OIs) can lead to severe complications, especially in elderly patients due to age-related physiological changes and comorbidities. This study aims to evaluate the predictive accuracy of inflammatory scores-APACHE II, CURB-65, SOFA, and NEWS2-in determining the severity of odon...

Zusammenfassung: | Odontogenic infections (OIs) can lead to severe complications, especially in elderly patients due to age-related physiological changes and comorbidities. This study aims to evaluate the predictive accuracy of inflammatory scores-APACHE II, CURB-65, SOFA, and NEWS2-in determining the severity of odontogenic infections among elderly patients (>70 years) compared to younger patients (70 years, n = 49) and younger patients ( |
