Description
Summary:To compare the ability of qSOFA, NEWS2, SOFA, LODS, SIRS, APACHE-II and SAPS-II scores. Analysis of in-hospital mortality of 203 patients admitted to the ICU because of sepsis. The scores were compared according to their application. Discrimination was evaluated with AUC-ROC curve and performance with the Akaike’s (AIC) and Bayesian Information criterion (BIC). In-hospital mortality was 31.53%. NEWS2 showed better mortality discrimination ability and better performance considering the AIC/BIC criterion for mortality tan qSOFA (AUC-ROC = 0.615 and 0.536, P = .039). SOFA presented higher performance and AUC-ROC tan LODS (0.776 vs. 0.693, P = .01) and both showed higher discrimination ability than SIRS (AUC-ROC = 0.521, P
