=== Weighing of scores ===
=== Weighting of scores ===
*Each physiological variable selected has been weighted with a score ranging from 0-4 points to reflect severity.
*Each physiological variable selected has been weighted with a score ranging from 0-4 points to reflect severity.
*Physiological variables with the worst deviation from normal have been assigned the higher points.

== Collection Guidelines ==
Deviation in physiologic variables are selected during a patients' '''first 24 hours'''  while "in the ICU".
The clock starts at the actual [[Arrive DtTm field | Arrive DtTm]], ([[Admit date and time]]) into the ICU.
