thanks for your attention, i had this form, do you work with this tool yourself or do you know that is practical to use APACHEII as a predictor tools,

again thank you very much.

I never really used it. If the physicians I worked with used it, I never knew it. Sorry for such an anecdotal answer. ;)

It was widely used in most ICUs I worked in in Australia. The coding was done retrospectively from record review as far as I know, so it didn't really help us at the bedside on a prospective basis as a predictor tool.

Its widely used where I work as well, however we dont formally chart it. It is used more for determining when to initiate drugs such as Xigris for sepsis. Xigris is a VERY expensive drug and is usually only indicated with a certain Apache score.
