Comparison of National Early Warning Score 2, Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment, and Quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment Scores in Detecting Sepsis-induced Organ Dysfunction and Predicting the Outcome in Sepsis: A Prospective Observational Study

Key Points

• The aim is to compare the effectiveness of different scoring systems in detecting organ dysfunction caused by sepsis and predicting patient outcomes.
• Prospective observational study design
• Utilized national early warning score 2, sepsis-related organ failure assessment, and quick sequential organ failure assessment scores
• Analyzed data from sepsis cases to evaluate predictions of organ dysfunction and outcomes
• Identified significant differences in the effectiveness of the warning scores in detecting sepsis-induced organ dysfunction
• The national early warning score 2 showed superior predictive capability over other scores
• Quick sequential organ failure assessment had limitations in accurately predicting outcomes in severe sepsis cases
