AWhat changed
Specified the SOFA scoring categories across six organ systems in a consensus-development paper.
Scientific scope
The record is the exact nine-author 1996 consensus-development paper. It describes organ dysfunction rather than guaranteeing individual mortality prediction; the later multicentre evaluation, Sepsis-3 use and SOFA-2 revision remain separate.
