Cutoff Sensitivity (%) Specificity (%)
ADP <75.5 75.6 71.9
ASPI <85.5 73.2 64.9
COL <62.5 48.8 93
Platelet Count <211.5 61 80.7
White Cell Count <12.35 48.8 82.5
Haemoglobin <11.35 58.5 86
Haematocrit <0.322 53.7 91.2
SOFA>3.5 92.7 71.9

Sensitivity: Percentage of severe sepsis patients with a positive test.

Specificity: Percentage of SIRS/uncomplicated sepsis patients with a negative test.

SOFA  =  Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment score.
