Impact of admission hypophosphatemia and hypokalemia on invasive mechanical ventilation in sepsis patients

Aims: Electrolyte disturbances are common in patients with sepsis and may impair respiratory muscle function, increasing the need for invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). However, the impact of admission hypophosphatemia and hypokalemia on early IMV need in patients with sepsis remains incompletely understood. This s...
