    The study developed a 28-day mortality prediction model for septic shock patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) as a key risk factor.

  • 2

    Independent predictors of 28-day mortality included LVSD, decreased pH, atrial arrhythmia, dopamine use, and reduced PaO2/FiO2.

  • 3

    The model demonstrated an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.767 in the training cohort and 0.779 after internal validation.

  • 4

    External validation confirmed the model's reliability, showing superior predictive performance compared to the APACHE II score.

    A web-based dynamic nomogram calculator for the mortality prediction model is available for free public use.
