Purpose: Sepsis is a global public health burden. The sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) is the most commonly used scoring system for diagnosing sepsis and assessing severity. Due to the widespread use of endotracheal intubation and sedative medications in sepsis, the accuracy of the Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) is the lowest in SOFA. We designed this multicenter, cross-sectional study to investigate the predictive efficiency of SOFA with or without GCS on ICU mortality in patients with sepsis. Methods: First, 3048 patients with sepsis admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH) were enrolled in this survey. The data were collected from June 8, 2013 to October 12, 2022. Second, 18,108 patients with sepsis in the eICU database were enrolled. Third, 2397 septic patients with respiratory system ≥ 3 points in SOFA in the eICU database were included. We investigated the predictive efficiency of SOFA with or without GCS on ICU mortality in patients with sepsis in various ICUs of PUMCH, and then we validated the results in the eICU database. Main results: In data of ICUs in PUMCH, the predictive efficiency of SOFA without GCS (AUROC [95% CI], 24 h, 0.724 [0.688, 0.760], 48 h, 0.734 [0.699, 0.769], 72 h, 0.748 [0.713, 0.783], 168 h, 0.781 [0.747, 0.815]) was higher than that of SOFA with GCS (AUROC [95% CI], 24 h, 0.708 [0.672, 0.744], 48 h, 0.721 [0.685, 0.757], 72 h, 0.735 [0.700, 0.757], 168 h, 0.770 [0.736, 0.804]) on ICU mortality in patients with sepsis, and the difference was statistically significant (P value, 24 h, 0.001, 48 h, 0.003, 72 h, 0.004, 168 h, 0.005). In septic patients with respiratory system ≥ 3 points in SOFA in the eICU database, although the difference was not statistically significant (P value, 24 h, 0.148, 48 h, 0.178, 72 h, 0.132, 168 h, 0.790), SOFA without GCS (AUROC [95% CI], 24 h, 0.601 [0.576, 0.626], 48 h, 0.625 [0.601, 0.649], 72 h, 0.639 [0.615, 0.663], 168 h, 0.653 [0.629, 0.677]) had a higher predictive efficiency on ICU mortality than SOFA with GCS (AUROC [95% CI], 24 h, 0.591 [0.566, 0.616], 48 h, 0.616 [0.592, 0.640], 72 h, 0.628 [0.604, 0.652], 168 h, 0.651 [0.627, 0.675]). Conclusions: In severe sepsis, it is realistic and feasible to discontinue the routine GCS for SOFA in patients with a respiratory system ≥ 3 points, and even better predict ICU mortality. Key messages: SOFA is the most commonly used scoring system for diagnosing sepsis and assessing severity. Due to the widespread use of endotracheal intubation and sedative medications in sepsis, the accuracy of GCS is the lowest in SOFA. We designed this multicenter, cross-sectional study to investigate the predictive efficiency of SOFA with or without GCS on ICU mortality in patients with sepsis. In severe sepsis, it is realistic and feasible to discontinue the routine GCS for SOFA in patients with a respiratory system ≥ 3 points, and even better predict ICU mortality.
