Mapping Database Diagnosis Codes to APACHE II (old): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 15:53, 28 October 2010

APACHE II has its own Diagnostic Categories with assigned weights that are used in a formula to predict risk of death.

The Regional ICU/Medicine Database Diagnostic Codes have been mapped to the APACHE II Diagnostic Categories by Dr. Carla Chrusch with some help from Trish in 2003 then Kendiss Olafson with Julie in 2005.

APACHE II has its own Diagnostic Categories with assigned weights for calculating the risk of death.
- negetive coefficient is associated with a good outcome
- positive coefficient is associated with a bad outcome.

APACHE II Diagnostic Categories are also include in Annual and Quarterly Reports.
