SOFA = sequential organ failure assessment
a
mean difference = mean difference between E-SOFA score component and manual SOFA score component
b
mean absolute difference = mean of the absolute value of the difference between E-SOFA score component and manual SOFA score component
c
agreement was measured by Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient for the full SOFA score, and by weighted Cohen’s Kappa for individual SOFA components
