Tiivistelmä	CURB-65, derived and validated by Lim et al. in 2003, is a 5-point severity of illness score for community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). It assesses confusion, urea nitrogen, respiratory rate, blood pressure, and age ≥65 years to stratify mortality risk and guide admission and treatment decisions.	The Quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) score, introduced by the Sepsis-3 taskforce in 2016, is a rapid 3-variable bedside screening tool for identifying non-ICU patients at high risk of sepsis-related mortality. It uses altered mentation, systolic hypotension, and tachypnea to quickly stratify patients without requiring laboratory testing.	The Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, introduced by Vincent and Moreno in 1996, is a 24-point daily assessment tool that quantifies organ dysfunction across six physiological systems in critically ill patients. It was adopted into the 2016 Sepsis-3 definitions and is now the international standard for identifying and grading sepsis-related organ failure.
