Which rating system is better – qSOFA or SIRS?

Scripta Scientifica Medica, 2019
Introduction The definitions of sepsis and septic shock were redefined in 2016. This study compares the performance of qSOFA with that of SIRS criteria for the diagnosis of sepsis and prediction of 30-day mortality. Aim The aim of this article is to assess the severity of the infection of patients using SIRS and qSOFA scales and to compare their ...

Surgical site infections and sepsis in gynecological surgery

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 172, Issue 1, Page 92-103, January 2026.
Abstract Despite advancements in infection control, surgical site infections (SSIs) and postoperative sepsis remain significant challenges in gynecological surgery, contributing to increased morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. In low‐income countries, circulatory failure due to septic shock leads to most deaths after surgery, with sepsis ...
