Methods and apparatus for predicting the development of sepsis in a subject at risk for developing sepsis are provided. Features in a biomarker profile of the subject are evaluated. The subject is likely to develop sepsis if these features satisfy a particular value set. Methods and apparatus for predicting the development of a stage of sepsis in a subject at risk for developing a stage of sepsis are provided. A plurality of features in a biomarker profile of the subject is evaluated. The subject is likely to have the stage of sepsis if these feature values satisfy a particular value set.
