Scoring for the diagnosis of sepsis-induced coagulopathy
Category | Parameter | 0 point | 1 point | 2 points |
Prothrombin time | PT-INR | ≦1.2 | >1.2 | >1.4 |
Coagulation | Platelet count (×109/L) | ≧150 | <150 | <100 |
Total SOFA | SOFA four items | 0 | 1 | ≧2 |
Diagnosed as sepsis-induced coagulopathy when the total score is 4 or more with total score of prothrombin time and coagulation exceeding 2.
Total SOFA is the sum the four items (respiratory SOFA, cardiovascular SOFA, hepatic SOFA, renal SOFA). The score of total SOFA is defined as 2 if the total score exceeded 2.
INR, international normalisation ratio; PT, prothrombin time; SOFA, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment.
