Racial disparities in the SOFA score among patients hospitalized with COVID-19
Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score predicts probability of in-hospital mortality. Many crisis standards of care suggest the use of SOFA scores to allocate medical resources during the COVID-19 pandemic. Are SOFA scores elevated among Non-Hispanic Black and Hispanic patients hospitalize...
