APACHE II – a patient can be classified into two groups either Actively Treated or Monitored.
the database program has never utilized the information from this field since starting data collection.
this field is not part of the APACHE II Score nor is it use in the prediction of death formula.
current data collection defaults active TX to YES for all patients
To meet the criteria of “active treatment” a patient must have one or more of the active therapies from a list of 27 items (TX therapies -items are available from the TISS). If none of these therapies apply then a patient is considered to be admitted form “monitoring” only.
