- Abstract
Regardless, our findings reinforce that standard severity of illness scores should be used with caution for mortality prognostication or benchmarking of ICU performance in COVID-19 patients. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the performance of SAPS-3 to predict hospital mortality in a large cohort of COVID-19 patients admitted to ICUs in Brazil.
