摘要
A simple clinical index can be utilized to identify occult bacterial infections in the critical care unit. Use of this index enables the critical care physician to estimate the likelihood of occult infection, thus reducing and directing the diagnostic effort. This article reviews nonspecific screening tests used in the index.
