Quick Sequential [Sepsis-Related] Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) and St. John Sepsis Surveillance Agent to Detect Patients at Risk of Sepsis: An Observational Cohort Study
The 2016 Sepsis-3 guidelines included the Quick Sequential [Sepsis-related] Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) tool to identify patients at risk of sepsis. The objective was to compare the utility of qSOFA to the St. John Sepsis Surveillance Agent among patients with suspected infection. The primary outcomes were in-hospital mortality or admission to the intensive care unit. A multiple center obs...
متن کاملUtility of quick sepsis-related organ failure assessment (qSOFA) to predict outcome in patients with pneumonia
BACKGROUND Despite on-going advances in medical treatment, the burden of disease of pneumonia remains high. We aimed to determine the association of the qSOFA score with in-hospital mortality, length of hospitalisation, and admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) in patients with pneumonia. Further, in a subgroup analysis, the outcomes were compared for qSOFA in comparison to other risk scor...
متن کاملIterative User Interface Design for Automated Sequential Organ Failure Assessment Score Calculator in Sepsis Detection
BACKGROUND The new sepsis definition has increased the need for frequent sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score recalculation and the clerical burden of information retrieval makes this score ideal for automated calculation. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to (1) estimate the clerical workload of manual SOFA score calculation through a time-motion analysis and (2) describe a use...
متن کاملSequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) scores differ between genders in a sepsis cohort: Cause or effect?
BACKGROUND Controversy exists regarding the influence of gender on sepsis events and outcome. Epidemiological data from other countries may not always apply to local circumstances. The aim of this study was to identify gender differences in patient characteristics, treatment, and outcome related to the occurrence of sepsis at admission to the ICU. METHODS A prospective observational cohort st...
متن کاملPlasma procalcitonin in sepsis and organ failure.
INTRODUCTION Because the use of procalcitonin (PCT) as a marker of bacterial infection has been advocated, this study was carried out to determine the usefulness of plasma PCT in the early diagnosis and differentiation of patients with non-infectious systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) from those with sepsis, and the relationship between plasma PCT level and severity of organ failure...
