APACHE Comorbid Diagnoses

This is not about the APACHE Acute Diagnoses. 

Additional Info

The APACHE Comorbid Diagnoses is a component of the APACHE Score. This is not collected specifically, but instead assigned behind the scenes based on whether any Comorbid Diagnosis is on a list of diagnoses that correspond to the diagnoses in the original Apache study.

Implementation in CCMDB

The

• S_ICD10_APACHE_Comorbids query

draws on the

• S_ICD10_APACHE_Como_patterns table and the s_ICD10 table

The contents of the

• S_ICD10_APACHE_Comorbids query

are then used by the

• L_ICD10_APACHE_Comorbids query

to provide the list of ICD10 APACHE Comorbids for patient records.
