The FADIO=COMPLIMED scores can help to measure the complexity of patients admitted to an internal medicine ward. Nardi et al reported 2 scores which can be used to predict one-year morality, with analysis shown in Figure 2b.
Complimed may be for complexity of internal medicine.
Parameters:
(1) Barthel Index, from 0 (dependent) to 100 (independent)
(2) Exton-Smith Scale for pressure sores from 5 to 20
(3) Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI)
complimed score 1
= mean of BS' and ES'
BS' = 100 - (Barthel index)
ES' = (20 - (Exton Smith scale)) / 15 * 100
complimed score 2 is based on the Charlson score

probability of in-hospital mortality =
= (0.2998 * (SQRT(intercept)^2)) + (3.913 * SQRT(intercept)) - 14.81
