    Enhanced bedside mortality prediction combining point-of-care lactate and the quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) score in patients hospitalised with suspected infection in southeast Asia: a cohort study
    (2022-09-01) Wright S.W.; Hantrakun V.; Rudd K.E.; Lau C.Y.; Lie K.C.; Chau N.V.V.; Teparrukkul P.; West T.E.; Limmathurotsakul D.; Mahidol University
    with the quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) score in adult patients admitted to hospital with suspected infection in southeast Asia. Methods: We performed a cohort study by prospectively enrolling patients aged 18 years or older who had been... with the qSOFA score, a lactate score, and a modified Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score for mortality discrimination using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC). Mortality discrimination of the qSOFA-lactate score

    External validation of clinical severity scores to guide referral of paediatric acute respiratory infections in resource-limited primary care settings
    (2023-12-01) Chandna A.; Mwandigha L.; Koshiaris C.; Limmathurotsakul D.; Nosten F.; Lubell Y.; Perera-Salazar R.; Turner C.; Turner P.; Mahidol University
    Accurate and reliable guidelines for referral of children from resource-limited primary care settings are lacking. We identified three practicable paediatric severity scores (the Liverpool quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (Lq... within a refugee camp on the Thailand-Myanmar border. This secondary analysis of data from a longitudinal birth cohort study consisted of 3010 ARI presentations in children aged ≤ 24 months. The primary outcome was receipt of supplemental oxygen. We

    community hospitals to a tertiary center, we tested whether pre-referral antibiotic administration is associated with 28-day survival in sepsis, and whether this association differs by the presence of shock. DESIGN: Secondary analysis of a prospective cohort... total of 2593 adults with sepsis defined by primary diagnosis of infection and modified Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score greater than or equal to 2 who were referred from community hospitals.
