Prediction of mortality in ICU patients : A comparison between the SOFA score and other indicators

© 2023 British Association of Critical Care Nurses..

BACKGROUND: The intensive care unit (ICU) is the most important department for critically ill patients. Different scoring systems are used to assess the severity of the disease and evaluate organ failure during the patient's stay in ICU.

AIMS: Our purpose was to evaluate the C-reactive protein/Albumin (CRP/Alb) ratio and SOFA score as indicators of 28-day mortality in ICU patients.

MATERIALS AND METHOD: A total of 55 patients were enrolled in this study. CRP and CRP/Alb rates, SOFA scores, and demographic data were used to evaluate 28-day mortality in a referral hospital.

RESULTS: Survived and dead patients were significantly different in the CRP, CRP/Alb rates, and SOFA scores. However, in the adjusted model, the SOFA score was the predictor of 28-day mortality in ICU patients.

CONCLUSION: SOFA score was also confirmed as a predictor of mortality in ICU patients. Besides, the role of CRP and CRP/Alb in the prediction of disease prognosis or mortality requires further studies.
