Background In this study it was aimed to compare the effects of qSOFA (Quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment) score with modified qSOFA score (PLoS One. 2018 Sep 26;13(9):e0204608) for predicting one month survival in patients with diagnosed septic shock (SS) in a tertiary-care educational university hospital in a developing country. Methods Modified qSOFA was created by adding age factor (>50 years=1 point) to patients with qSOFA scale 1 or 2 or 3 who had SS (sepsis+hypotension+adrenergic agent) and consulted by Infectious Diseases consultants between December 2013-December 2018. Arterial lactate level of >2 mmol/L criterion was added as an including criteria for SS according to 3rd International Sepsis and Septic Shock Consensus Statement after 23rd February 2016. Statistical analysis was performed via Chi-square test and a p-value <0.05 was considered significant. Results The number of patients with qSOFA score of 1 or 2 or 3 from 527 patients are in Table1 [some of the cases were diagnosed as septic shock according to elder definition (without lactate criterion) and there was a subgroup with qSOFA score 1]. Among the >50-year aged group, the 30-day survival rate was lower in patients with qSOFA3 vs. qSOFA 2 vs. qSOFA 1 (Table1, 3x2 Chi Square test, P = 0.0057). Among the <50 years group, the qSOFA one month survival rate was lower in patients with qSOFA 3 vs. qSOFA 2 vs. qSOFA 1 (Table, 3x2 Chi Square Test, P = 0.0052). According to modified qSOFA, there was a significant difference for one month survival among SS cases with scores of 1, 2, 3 and 4 (12/21 57% vs. Fifty/126 40% vs. 78/269 29% vs. 22/111 20%, 4x2 Chi-square test, P = 0.0003). On the other hand, there was no significant difference in terms of one month survival when we performed subgroup analysis in qSOFA score 1, 2, or 3 subgroups, as ≤50 years vs. >50 years (table, Chi-square test, 12/21 vs. 39/97 P = 0.224, 11/29 vs. 75/244 P = 0.526, 3/25 vs. 22/111 P = 0.572). Conclusion In terms of survival at one month, there was a significant difference between qSOFA score 1, 2, 3 and 4 subgroups. In patients with qSOFA score of 1 or 2 or 3, being under 50 years did not have a significant effect on one-month survival. Modified qSOFA may be beneficial to foresee the probable mortality but these findings need to be validated in larger cohorts Disclosures All authors: No reported disclosures.

219. Is the modified quick SOFA scale superior to quick SOFA in patients with diagnosed septic shock?
