Definition of SAT: Sepsis patients with thrombocytopenia.

Thrombocytopenia (12, 13):Platelet count <100 × 109/L or a 30% relative decrease of the baseline platelet count during ICU stay; the baseline platelet count was defined as the highest value over the past seven days before ICU admission. We used the initial platelet count in ICU admission as baseline platelet count for patients without platelet count measurement before ICU admission.

Severe thrombocytopenia (14, 15): Platelet count <50 × 109/L during ICU stay.

Sepsis 3.0 (16): Organ dysfunction triggered by an infection that endangers the patient's life and rapid increase in the SOFA score, with a total score of two points.

Sepsis shock (16): The patient with sepsis requiring vasopressors to maintain mean blood pressure at 65 mmHg or higher and having a serum lactate level higher than 2 mmol/L (18 mg/dL) after fluid resuscitation.
