Prehospital triage of septic patients at the SAMU regulation: Comparison of qSOFA, MRST, MEWS and PRESEP scores
The American Journal of Emergency Medicine Oct 27, 2017
Jouffroy R, et al. - In this study, researchers evaluated the predictive ability of Quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA), Robson Screening Tool (RST), Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS) and Prehospital Early Sepsis Detection (PRESEP) scores on out of-hospital triage of septic patients, to predict intensive care unit (ICU) admission. At SAMU 15 regulation call centre, findings suggested irrelevance of screening patients using qSOFA, MRST, MEWS and PRESEP scores to predict ICU admission. They identified a necessity for the development of a specific scoring system for out-of-hospital triage of septic patients.
