Abstract
Immunodeficiency is common in patients with severe sepsis or septic shock. Despite a similar crude mortality, immunodeficiency was associated with an increased risk of short-term mortality after multivariate analysis. Neutropenia and specific, but not all, profiles of immunodeficiency were independently associated with an increased risk of death.
