Sepsis and its complications are a common cause of infectious disease and death in worldwide. But the infection can be challenges to confirm and there is gold standard methods to confirm it. Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) value frequently measured at every complete blood count. In sepsis the RDW morphology changes are believed to be mainly related to prognosis. RDW has also been studied as an independent variable in different predictive score. We systematically review the articles can RDW be used as prognostic marker in patient with sepsis.
