Dr. Ashish Nandlal Sindhi

Abstract: Background: Sepsis is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in hospitalized patients. Early identification is critical for timely management. This study examines the predictive accuracy of the qSOFA Quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score in identifying high risk sepsis patients. A retrospective review of 100 patients meeting qSOFA criteria revealed that those with scores 2 had higher rates of in hospital mortality and ICU admission. The study concludes that qSOFA is an effective prognostic tool for predicting adverse outcomes in sepsis patients. Materials and methods: A total of 100 patients were included in the study who fulfilled the criteria of qSOFA. Result: Of the 100 patients, 60% had a qSOFA score ?2. Patients with qSOFA scores of 2 or higher had significantly higher in hospital mortality and ICU admission rates. Conclusion: qSOFA score were associated with prediction of inpatient mortality, ICU admission and hospital stay length in patient with sepsis.
