Description

Multiple Organ Dysfunction Score is intended to offer an objective measure for the severity of multiple organ disorders. Six key organ systems commonly affected in systemic disorders are assessed. A cumulative score correlates with mortality rate seen for the seriously ill patient.

• conversion factor for creatinine µmol/L to mg/dL is 0.011312

• conversion factor for bilirubin µmol/L to mg/dL is 0.05848

 

Cardiovascular Calculations

 

pressure adjusted heart rate =

= (heart rate in beats per minute) * (right atrial pressure in mm Hg) / (mean arterial pressure in mm Hg)

 

mean arterial pressure =

= ((systolic arterial pressure in mm Hg) + (2 * (diastolic arterial pressure in mm Hg))) / 3

 

Calculation and Interpretation

 

Multiple Organ Dysfunction Score =

= (respiratory points) + (renal points) + (hepatic points) + (cardiovascular points) + (hematologic points) + (neurologic points)

 

Interpretation:

• minimum score: 0

• maximum score: 24
