Gastrointestinal surgeries predominated (34.9%). One thousand three-hundred and ten patients were included in the study. The predictive ability of the SAPS 3 index to differentiate survivors and non-survivors was determined by the ROC curve and calibration by the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test. This is a prospective study undertaken in two surgical ICUs of two different hospitals over a one-year period patients younger than 16 years, who stay at the ICU for less than 24 hours, readmitted to the unit, and those admitted for dialysis were excluded from the study. ![]() The objective of this study was to validate this system and determine its discriminatory power in surgical patients in Brazil. The SAPS 3 (Simplified Acute Physiology Score 3) prognostic system is composed of 20 parameters, represented by an acute physiology score and assessment of the previous status, aimed at establishing a predictive mortality index for patients admitted to intensive care units (ICU).
