Classification of patients regarding to outcome in early periods of peritonitis or intra-abdominal sepsis, has always been a primary goal of intensive care physicians. In order to predict outcome, a wide variety of scoring systems have been proposed. Mannheim Peritonitis Index (MPI) is one of the most effective scoring systems and its predictive value has been shown previously. Three hundred and twenty five patients that were admitted to Emergency Services in both Ege and Dokuz Eylül University Hospitals between 1995 and 1999, have been evaluated retrospectively by using patient records. Among them, 258 patients (79.4%) have been discharged in well condition and 67 patients died (20.6%). In the latter, MPI scores were always equal or more than 26. Mean MPI scores were 30.23 7.05 and 18.55 6.67 in exitus group and discharged group respectively. When all descriptive factors in MPI have been evaluated separately, every predictor was revealed statistically significant differences between exitus and discharged groups. It has been concluded that MPI is effective scoring system in terms of predicting final outcome in patients with peritonitis and intraabdominal sepsis.
