sofa: SOFA (Sequential Organ Failure Assessment) Data
Description
A dataset containing the SOFA scores (Vincent et al, 1996). for 520 patients,
hospitalized in the intensive care unit (ICU) with Acute Lung Inury. Daily
measurements are available for as long as each one remains in the ICU. This is an
example of variable-domain functional data, as described by Gellar et al. (2014).Details
The data was collected as part of the Improving Care of ALI Patients (ICAP)
study (Needham et al., 2006). If you use this dataset as an example in
written work, please cite the study protocol.References
