A score of ≥2 in any system defines the presence of organ failure. a The score for patients with preexisting chronic renal failure depends on the extent of further deterioration of baseline renal function. No formal correction exists for a baseline serum creatinine ≥134 micromol/L or ≥1.4 mg/dL. b Off inotropic support. | |||||
