Comparative Analysis of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Languages in Predicting Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) Scores.

PURPOSE:The Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score plays a crucial role in intensive care units (ICUs) by providing a reliable measure of a patient's organ function or extent of failure. However, the precise assessment is time-consuming, and daily assessment in clinical practice in the ICU can be challenging. METHODS:Realistic scenarios in an ICU setting were created, and the data mining precision of ChatGPT 4.0 Plus, Bard, and Perplexity AI were assessed using Spearman's as well as the intraclass correlation coefficients regarding the accuracy in determining the SOFA score. RESULTS:The strongest correlation was observed between the actual SOFA score and the score calculated by ChatGPT 4.0 Plus (r correlation coefficient 0.92) (p<0.001). In contrast, the correlation between the actual SOFA and that calculated by Bard was moderate (r=0.59, p=0.070), while the correlation with Perplexity AI was substantial, at 0.89, with a p<0.001. The interclass correlation coefficient analysis of SOFA with those of ChatGPT 4.0 Plus, Bard, and Perplexity AI was ICC=0.94. CONCLUSION:Artificial intelligence (AI) tools, particularly ChatGPT 4.0 Plus, show significant promise in assisting with automated SOFA score calculations via AI data mining in ICU settings. They offer a pathway to reduce the manual workload and increase the efficiency of continuous patient monitoring and assessment. However, further development and validation are necessary to ensure accuracy and reliability in a critical care environment.
