SOFA

El SOFA es el acrónimo en inglés de Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score (score SOFA). Es utilizado para seguir el estado del paciente durante su estadía en la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos (UCI).^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5]

Es uno de entre varios sistemas de puntaje utilizados habitualmente en unidades de cuidados intensivos y brinda datos dinámicos sobre el estado del paciente a diferencia de otros como APACHE II, que solo brinda datos estáticos al momento de admisión del paciente.

Utiliza seis puntuaciones para medir diferentes sistemas críticos del paciente: respiratorio, cardiovascular, hepático, coagulación, renal y neurológico.
