This data is derived from our admit diagnoses.
APACHE II has its own [[File:APACHE II DX categories.pdf | Diagnostic Categories]] with assigned weights that are used in a [[Risk of Death Calculation for APACHE II | formula to predict risk of death]] (negative coefficient is associated with a good outcome, positive coefficient is associated with a bad outcome).


== Where is the SAS program stored ==
Data Collectors are not collecting the APACHE II DX categories specifically. Our [[:Category:Diagnosis Coding (old)| diagnostic codes]] have been mapped to the Apache diagnoses by Dr. Carla Chrusch with some help from Trish in 2003 then Kendiss Olafson with Julie in 2005. 


== Who came up with the mapping scheme ==
Our [[statistician]] has a [[Media:ApacheII_MacroDX_code_map.pdf |macro]] for [[SAS]] to automate the code mapping.
Dr. Carla Chrush and Dr. Kendiss Olafson


== Is there an external reference to the mapping scheeme ==
