1. Abstract
1.1. Background: Necrotizing Soft Tissue Infections (NSTIs)
cause rapid necrosis of soft tissue proximal to infected areas and
are associated with a mortality rate of up to 35% depending on the
type. However, there are no standardized procedures for determining
treatment modality (i.e., debridement vs. amputation).

... no significant differences were observed between the groups in the following criteria: qSO- did not show any significant differences, but the Lac value (p = 0.049) showed significant differences between the amputated and non-amputated groups (Table 1). Although there was a significant difference in the results of the binary logistic regression analysis of SOFA scores and Lac values between the groups, no significant differences were observed in the multivariate logistic regression analysis (p = 0.071, 0.330) ( Table 2).
