ConceptSOFA score
DescriptionA scoring system to grade and follow the development of organ dysfunction in six vital organ systems. Previously known as "Sepsis related Organ Failure Assessment".
UseUse to record the results for each component parameter and their total sum for the SOFA score. SOFA score is usually used in intensive care units and in acute settings, but can be used in all patients where organ dysfunction is suspected or identified, for example in sepsis patients. SOFA score is used in adults over the age of 16.
MisuseNot to be used to record actual measurements for each component. Use specific OBSERVATION archetypes for this purpose: - OBSERVATION.pf_ratio; - OBSERVATION.blood_pressure; - OBSERVATION.glasgow_coma_scale; and - OBSERVATION.laboratory_test. Not to be used to record SOFA score in children younger than 16 years of age. Not to be used to record qSOFA (quick SOFA). Use the archetype OBSERVATION.qsofa_score for this purpose.
PurposeTo record the results for each component parameter and their total sum for the SOFA score.
