| Core Tip |
Hajibandeh index (HI), derived from combined levels of C-reactive protein, lactate, neutrophils, lymphocytes and albumin, can strongly predict presence and nature of peritoneal contamination in acute abdomen. The evidence is robust but limited to studies by our evidence synthesis group, hence we encourage other researchers to validate performance of HI in predicting the presence of intraperitoneal contamination and more importantly in predicting mortality following emergency laparotomy. |
