Validation of Computerized Automatic Calculation of the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment Score
Purpose. To validate the use of a computer program for the automatic calculation of the sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, as compared to the gold standard of manual chart review. Materials and Methods. Adult admissions (age > 18 years) to the medical ICU with a length of stay greater than 24 hours were studied in the setting of an academic tertiary referral center. A retrospecti...
متن کاملApplication of a modified sequential organ failure assessment score to critically ill patients
The purpose of the present study was to explore the usefulness of the Mexican sequential organ failure assessment (MEXSOFA) score for assessing the risk of mortality for critically ill patients in the ICU. A total of 232 consecutive patients admitted to an ICU were included in the study. The MEXSOFA was calculated using the original SOFA scoring system with two modifications: the PaO2/FiO2 rati...
متن کاملSequential organ failure assessment score as the determinant of outcome for patients with severe sepsis.
AIM To evaluate the impact of organ dysfunction in severe sepsis and determine the effectiveness of organ dysfunction scores to discriminate outcome after admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). METHODS Patients with a diagnosis of severe sepsis and at least one organ dysfunction on the first day in the ICU (n=117) were included in the prospective observational study. The presence of orga...

متن کاملComparing the Scores of Sequential Organ Failure Assessment and a Proposed Bedside Tool in Patients with Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome Admitted to ICU
Background and purpose: Sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) is used to assess the severity of the disease and mortality rate in patients admitted to ICU. SOFA requires experiments that are impractical in centers with limited resources. The aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic value of bedside SOFA (b SOFA) and SOFA scores in mortality of ICU patients. Materials and methods: ...
