Apache II Google Desktop Gadget

2009-09-15T19:31:00.000-07:00

We released a new APACHE II calculator for Google Desktop.

This ICU severity of illness calculator that uses the APACHE II (Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II) method outlined by Knaus et al. in 1985.

This scoring system has been validated in many subsequent clinical trials, and remains commonly used ICU severity of illness estimation. Scores calculated by the APACHE II method range from 0 to 71. Higher scores indicate greater severity of illness, and an increased risk of death.

Pneumonia Severity Index Calculator

2009-09-15T18:12:00.000-07:00

The size of this calculator results in an awkward appearance in the Gadget toolbar. This gadget is probably best docked and collapsed when not in use.
