Application of organ dysfunction assessment scores following pediatric lung transplantation

Clinical Transplantation, 2022
AbstractObjectiveOrgan dysfunction (OD) after lung transplantation can reflect preoperative organ failure, intraoperative acute organ damage and post‐operative complications. We assessed two OD scoring systems, both the PEdiatric Logistic Organ Dysfunction (PELOD) and the pediatric Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (pSOFA) scores, in recognizing risk

Organ dysfunction scores in ICU

Trends in Anaesthesia and Critical Care, 2013
Summary Organ dysfunction is common in ICU, and it is associated with high mortality rates, particularly among septic or complicated surgical patients. Scoring systems for organ dysfunction have a fourfold purpose: quantifying the entity and severity of organ dysfunction, stratifying and comparing patients as to morbidity and risk of mortality ...

Organ Dysfunction: General Approach, Epidemiology, and Organ Failure Scores

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2011
Multiorgan dysfunction syndrome represents a continuum of cumulative organ dysfunction from very mildly altered function to total and, rarely, irreversible organ failure and is the major cause of death in the intensive care unit (ICU). The terms multiple organ failure syndrome (MOFS), multiple organ system failure (MOSF), and multiple organ failure ...

SCORING SYSTEMS FOR ASSESSING ORGAN DYSFUNCTION AND SURVIVAL

Critical Care Clinics, 2000
Sepsis is an ongoing disease process carrying a high risk of organ failure and death. Scoring systems to determine disease severity and risk of mortality may be useful in patient management and clinical trial enrollment, although the role of either type of score in the determination of admission or discharge criteria or in decisions relating to the ...

Multiple organ dysfunction: Baseline and serial component scores

Critical Care Medicine, 2001
The multiple organ dysfunction score (MODS) describes and quantifies organ-specific physiology. The objective of this study was to examine the relation between six components of MODS (cardiovascular, respiratory, renal, central nervous system, hepatic, and hematologic) measured at admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) and during the ICU stay, with

Limitation in paediatric logistic organ dysfunction score

The Lancet, 2006
In their letter about the paediatric logistic organ dysfunction (PELOD) score (March 18, p 897), the authors of the original report describe a limitation in their previous calibration of the score against mortality. That is, the points given to each criterion of the score (0, 1, 10, or 20) cannot add up to a sum with predicted risk of mortality between
