  Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (Modified): mSOFA Score

 
Input
 
O2 Saturation

Jaundice No (0)

Yes (3)
Blood Pressure Hypotension absent (0)

Mean arterial pressure <70 mmHg (1)

On Dopamine ≤5 mcg/kg/min or any Dobutamine (2)

On Dopamine >5 mcg/kg/min, Epinephrine <=0.1 mcg/kg/min or Norepinephrine <=0.1 mcg/kg/min (3)

On Dopamine >15 mcg/kg/min or Epinephrine >0.1 mcg/kg/min or Norepinephrine >0.1 mcg/kg/min (4)
Glasgow Coma Score

  mSOFA Score Interpretation

 
0 to 7 points: 4% Mortality
8 to 11 points: 31% Mortality
12 to 19 points: 58% Mortality

 

 
  Data action

 
     
 
Include literature references: Yes   No
 

 

 
Equations used
 
O2 Saturation/FIO2 = 100 * O2 Saturation / FIO2
mSOFA Score = safiFactor + Jaundice + Blood Pressure + Glasgow Coma ScoreFactor + CreatinineFactor

 

 
Calculation Details and Variables
  • Equation parameters such as Jaundice, have two or more discrete values that may be used in the calculation. The numbers in the parentheses, e.g. (0), represent the values that will be used.
  • GlasgowComaScoreFactor is assigned values by this ordered logic:
    • If Glasgow Coma Score <6 points, GlasgowComaScoreFactor = 4
    • Else if Glasgow Coma Score ≤9 points, GlasgowComaScoreFactor = 3
    • Else if Glasgow Coma Score ≤12 points, GlasgowComaScoreFactor = 2
    • Else if Glasgow Coma Score ≤14 points, GlasgowComaScoreFactor = 1
    • Else GlasgowComaScoreFactor = 0.
  • CreatinineFactor is assigned values by this ordered logic:
    • If Creatinine ≥5 mg/dL, CreatinineFactor = 4
    • Else if Creatinine ≥3.5 mg/dL, CreatinineFactor = 3
    • Else if Creatinine ≥2 mg/dL, CreatinineFactor = 2
    • Else if Creatinine ≥1.2 mg/dL, CreatinineFactor = 1
    • Else CreatinineFactor = 0.
  • safiFactor is assigned values by this ordered logic:
    • If O2 Saturation/FIO2 ≤150 safiFactor = 4
    • Else if O2 Saturation/FIO2 ≤235 safiFactor = 3
    • Else if O2 Saturation/FIO2 ≤315 safiFactor = 2
    • Else if O2 Saturation/FIO2 ≤400 safiFactor = 1
    • Else safiFactor = 0
