Description

Reiter et al developed a prognostic score for a critically ill trauma patient based on both the TRISS and SAPS II scores. This score performed better for predicting hospital mortality than either score alone. The authors are from the University of Vienna.


 

Parameters:

(1) TRISS (see Chapter 29)

(2) SAPS II (see above)

 

X =

= (-0.0186 * (TRISS)) + (2.8087 * LN((SAPS II) + 1)) - 10.3602

 

probability of hospital mortality =

= 1 / (1 + EXP((-1) * X))
