Evaluation of APACHE II, SAPS II and sofa as predictors of mortality in patients over 80 years admitted to ICU

چکیده
Methods Retrospective cohort study. In this study we included patients with at least 80 years admitted to ICU for medical cause, from January-2003 to May 2011. Patients with Ischemic heart disease and arrhythmias were excluded. Logistic regressions analysis was used to calculate the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy as well as the OR probability of mortality. The ability to predict mortality was performed with ROC curves.

Comparison of four prognostic markers in opioid poisoned patients admitted in ICU
Background: Opioid poisoning is the most common type of poisoning in intensive care units (ICUs). This group usually includes patients who have been drug abusers for a long time and now require hospitalization either because of acute overdose or due to side effects of routine opioid use. This study aimed to compare the severity and prognosis of patients using common mortality predictors Sequent...

BACKGROUND Scoring systems in critical care patients are essential for predicting of the patient outcome and evaluating the therapy. In this study, we determined the value of the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II), Simplified Acute Physiology Score II (SAPS II), Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scoring systems in the prediction o...

This study assessed the ability of the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) and Acute Physiology, Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II scoring systems, as well as the Simplified Acute Physiology Score (SAPS) II method to predict group mortality in intensive care unit (ICU) patients who were poisoned with organophosphate. The medical records of 149 organophosphate poisoned patients admitt...

INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of the APACHE II (Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II), SAPS II (Simplified Acute Physiology Score II) and SOFA (Sequential Organ Failure Assessment) scores compared to simpler models based on age and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) in predicting long-term outcome of patients with moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury ...
متن کاملA comparative study of four intensive care outcome prediction models in cardiac surgery patients
BACKGROUND Outcome prediction scoring systems are increasingly used in intensive care medicine, but most were not developed for use in cardiac surgery patients. We compared the performance of four intensive care outcome prediction scoring systems (Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II [APACHE II], Simplified Acute Physiology Score II [SAPS II], Sequential Organ Failure Assessment [S...
