Tahara et al reported the SABCIP score for predicting in-hospital mortality for a patinet following lung cancer surgery. The authors are from Nagasaki University, University of Occupational and Environmental Health, and Tokyo Medical and Dental University in Japan.
Patient selection: status post lung cancer surgery
SABCIP is based on the first letter of the 6 parameters.
Parameters:
(1) age in years
(2) sex
(3) body mass index in kg per sq m
(4) clinical stage
(5) procedure type
(6) interstitial lung disease
