Quick sepsis‐related organ failure assessment score as a possible predictor for in‐hospital adverse events in infective endocarditis

Infective endocarditis (IE) can be life‐threatening because of various associated adverse events. The quick Sepsis‐related Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) score is a straightforward useful method for predicting in‐hospital mortality in patients with suspected infections. However, few data exist regarding the clinical impact of the qSOFA score on predicting adverse events in IE during hospitalization. We studied the usefulness of qSOFA score for predicting in‐hospital adverse events in patients with IE
