Prognostic Accuracy of SpO₂-based Respiratory Sequential Organ Failure Assessment for Predicting In-hospital Mortality.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

In this study we aimed to investigate the prognostic accuracy for predicting in-hospital mortality using respiratory Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) scores by the conventional method of missing-value imputation with normal partial pressure of oxygen (PaO₂)- and oxygen saturation (SpO₂)-based estimation methods.

Methods

This was a single-center, retrospective cohort study of patients with suspected infection in the emergency department. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. We compared the area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUROC) and calibration results of the conventional method (normal value imputation for missing PaO₂) and six SpO₂-based methods: using methods A, B, PaO
