Dynamic lactate indices as predictors of outcome in critically ill patients Alistair Nichol, Michael Bailey, Moritoki Egi, Ville Pettila, Craig French, Edward Stachowski, Michael C Reade, David Cooper, Rinaldo Bellomo Critical Care 2011, 15:R242 (20 October 2011) Measuring the magnitude, duration and trend of changes in blood lactate concentration over time may be more useful in predicting outcome in critically ill patients than a single measurement taken on admission.
