APACHE-Cardiac Subset Calculator

  • Age (years)
  • Heart Rate (bpm)
  • Mean Arterial Pressure (mmHg)
  • Serum Creatinine (mg/dL)
  • PaO2 (mmHg)
  • FiO2 (%)
  • Mechanical Ventilation? (1 = yes, 0 = no)
  • APACHE-Cardiac Subset: Explanation and Clinical Context
    The APACHE-Cardiac Subset is a risk stratification tool adapted from the APACHE III scoring system, specifically designed for cardiac intensive care patients.
    It incorporates variables including age, heart rate, mean arterial pressure, serum creatinine, PaO2/FiO2 ratio, and mechanical ventilation status to estimate mortality risk.
    The score allows clinicians to quickly assess illness severity, guide therapeutic decisions, and benchmark outcomes in cardiac critical care settings.
