We carried out a study about the Multiple Dysfunction of Organs in the Intensive Care Unit of the Military Hospital “Mario Muñoz Monroy” of Matanzas, from January 2002 to December 2006, reviewing the Medical Records of the patients entering the service. The universe of our study was formed by 82 patients diagnosed with multiple dysfunctions of the organs when entered the unit or during their evolution, representing 97 % of the patients attended in the unit. The study was made to determine the magnitude of the problem in the unit, and also to identify its behavior. There was a higher evidence in male sex, finding the Diabetes Mellitus as the most frequent pathologic antecedent though there was seen a great relation with post surgery period. The high lethality of this process and the number of affected organs were proportional.Downloads
