This calculator implements the published SOFA (Sequential Organ Failure Assessment) scoring method: six organ systems, respiratory, coagulation, liver, cardiovascular, central nervous system and renal, each scored 0 to 4 using the same thresholds published in the critical-care literature, summed to a 0-24 total that is compared against published score-to-mortality risk bands.
Move each slider (or pick a cardiovascular support category) to set that organ system's real clinical value. Each value is mapped to its published 0-4 SOFA sub-score using the standard thresholds, the six sub-scores are summed live, and the canvas shows where the resulting total falls on the published SOFA-mortality risk curve.
PaO₂/FiO₂ ratio slider, platelet count slider, bilirubin slider, a cardiovascular MAP/vasopressor-support category selector, a Glasgow Coma Scale slider, and a creatinine slider.
Did you know that large deidentified ICU databases like MIMIC-III contain hundreds of thousands of repeated SOFA measurements per patient stay, letting researchers study how the trend of a patient's score over time predicts outcome far better than any single snapshot value?
