SOFA score, Acute decompensated heart failure
Brief summary
Data on the use of sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) in patients with cardiovascular disease are increasing. Several studies demonstrated that the SOFA score can identify short-term mortality in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). This study was conducted to determine the prognostic value of the admission SOFA score in patients hospitalised for ADHF and to assess its ability in predicting the 30-day readmission rate.

Inclusion criteria
* All patients over 18 years old who were hospitalised for acute heart failure were included (either new-onset acute heart failure or ADHF).
Exclusion criteria
* Patients with septic shock or pulmonary infarction were excluded.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Mortality | Within 30 days from the day of hospitalization | The sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score was used to assess the relation to the all cause mortality of the patient with acute decompensated heart failure. Higher SOFA score is correlated with higher in-hospital mortality rate and 30-day mortality regardless of age, gender, or other comorbidities. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Re-admission rate | Within 30 days | To assess the prediction ability of the sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score in regard of re-admission rate. |
