Table 5. Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score.
Organ/system | Predictor | Score | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | ||
Respiration | PaO2/FiO2 (mmHg) | ≥400 | 300–399 | 200–299 | 100–199 and mechanically ventilated | <100 and mechanically ventilated |
Coagulation | Platelets (×109/L) | >150 | 101–150 | 51–100 | 21–50 | <21 |
Liver | Bilirubin (μmol/L) | <20 | 20–32 | 33–101 | 102–204 | >204 |
Cardiovascular system | Mean arterial pressure (mmHg) | ≥70 | <70 | |||
Administration of catecholamines (ìg·kg−1·min−1) | Dopamine ≤5 or dobutamine (any dose) | Dopamine >5 or epinephrine ≤0.1 or norepinephrine ≤0.1 | Dopamine >15 or epinephrine >0.1 or norepinephrine >0.1 | |||
Central nervous system | Glasgow coma score | 15 | 13–14 | 10–12 | 6–9 | <6 |
Kidneys | Serum creatinine (μmol/L) | <110 | 110–170 | 171–299 | 300–440 | >440 |
24 h urine output (mL) | 201–500 | <200 |
SOFA score is the sum of six different parameters, the worst value of which should be adopted on daily assessment.
