Mapping Database Diagnosis Codes to APACHE II (old)
APACHE II has its own diagnostic categories with assigned weights that are used in a formula to predict risk of death. The Regional Database Diagnostic Codes have been mapped to these APACHE II Diagnostic Categories.
- This was done in 2005 by Dr. Carla Chrusch and updated in 2007 by Dr. Kendiss Olafson.
