Delta SOFA Change Clinical Significance Calculator

Calculate and interpret delta SOFA (change in SOFA score from baseline over 48 to 72h) to distinguish patients with improving vs deteriorating organ function and predict 28-day ICU mortality.

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Calculate and interpret delta SOFA (change in SOFA score from baseline over 48 to 72h) to distinguish patients with improving vs deteriorating organ function and predict 28-day ICU mortality

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Baseline over 48 — The baseline over 48 recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the delta sofa result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the baseline over 48 for the scenario you are assessing. Calculate and interpret delta SOFA (change in SOFA score from baseline over 48 to 72h) to distinguish patients with improving vs deteriorating organ function and predict 28-day ICU mortality. Use the delta sofa result to inform your calculation.
