Abstract

The predictive ability of the Simplified Acute Physiology Score (SAPS) and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) in forecasting mortality in critically ill patients with infectious diseases leading to multiorgan dysfunction syndrome (MODS) is of interest. Hence, a total of 60 patients were analyzed. Data shows that SOFA outperformed SAPS in predicting mortality, with higher sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve (AUC). Thus, SOFA is a more reliable tool for assessing mortality risk in ICU patients, improving clinical decision-making.
