ABSTRACT
Objective: To compare in-hospital mortality predictive capacity of quick Sequential
Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) and Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome
(SIRS) in adult patients admitted with suspected infection.
Material and Method: A descriptive, cross-sectional study was carried out from
January to July 2017 with a non-experimental design in adult patients admitted with
infection of different source to the Hospital General del Sur Dr. Pedro Iturbe from
Maracaibo city, Venezuela, selected by an intentional sampling. We quantified the
qSOFA and SIRS scores, comparing the characteristics of admission, days of stay and
in-hospital mortality in the two groups.
Results: There were included 60 subjects, 51.6% were men; the most frequent
infectious source was the urinary tract with 43.3%, the use of vasoactive agents was
necessary in 40% of the patients, while in-hospital mortality occurred in 45% of cases.
The quick SOFA score was associated with a greater percentage of in-hospital mortality
compared to the SIRS score, also exhibiting a greater predictive capacity with sensitivity
of 96%, specificity of 33%, positive predictive value of 54%, negative predictive value
of 92%, positive likelihood ratio: 1.4, negative likelihood ratio: 0.1 and area under the
curve of 0.77 (0.65-0.89).
Conclusion: The quick SOFA score showed greater sensitivity and specificity for
in-hospital mortality compared to the SIRS.
