*This calculation is use to compute the predicted risk of hospital death for groups of acutely ill patients.   
This calculation is used to compute the predicted '''risk of hospital death''' for groups of acutely ill patients for APACHE II.   


*Dr. Carla Chrusch had mapped our diagnosis codes to the APACHE II Diagnostic Categories.
Our Database Diagnosis Codes are mapped to APACHE via [[APACHE Comorbidities in ICD10 codes]] but we do not use this model to predict risk of hospital death in our [[:Category:Reporting | '''Regional Stat Reports''']] because we don't have Hospital mortality data available to us.  
*APACHE II Diagnostic categories are currently part of our Standard Quarterly & Annual database reports.


*To computer the risk (R) of hospital death for each individual patient we use the following formula:
*To compute the risk (R) of hospital death for each individual patient we use the following formula:
*ln(r/l-R)=3.517+(APACHE II score x 0.146) + (0.603, only if post emergency surgery) + (APACHE II diagnostic category weight)
**'''Ln(R/l-R)=3.517+(APACHE II score x 0.146) + (0.603, only if post emergency surgery) +''' ([[APACHE Comorbidities in ICD10 codes]] '''weight)'''


*-ve coefficient = good prognosis
* Interpretation:
*+ve coefficient = bad prognosis
**-ve coefficient = good prognosis
**+ve coefficient = bad prognosis
