⚠️ qSOFA Score Calculator
Calculate the quick SOFA (qSOFA) score to flag patients with suspected infection at risk of poor outcomes.
qSOFA Score Calculator
Respiratory rate ≥ 22/min
Altered mentation (GCS < 15)
Systolic BP ≤ 100 mmHg
When to use
Rapid bedside screen in suspected sepsis outside the ICU.
How it works
1 point each: respiratory rate ≥ 22, altered mentation (GCS < 15), systolic BP ≤ 100. ≥ 2 = higher risk.
Key points
- qSOFA ≥ 2 warrants escalation and assessment for organ dysfunction.
- A score < 2 does not exclude sepsis.
- It is a prompt, not a diagnosis.
