  ABC2-SPH Score Interpretation

 
0 to 1 point: Low risk with <6% mortality
2 to 4 points: Intermediate risk with 6 to 14.9% mortality
5 to 8 points: High risk with 15 to 49.9% mortality
9 to 20 points: Very high risk with mortality ≥50%

 
 

 
Notes
  • This calculator represents findings from the literature referenced below. It is important to understand that these findings may not be representative of the experience in your local healthcare system.
  • Comorbidities include hypertension, previous stroke, heart failure, diabetes mellitus, obesity, coronary artery disease, atrial fib and/or flutter, cirrhosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and cancer.

 
Equations used
 
SFRatio = 100 * O2Sat / FIO2
ABC2SPHScore = AgeFactor + BUNFactor + ComorbiditiesFactor + CRPFactor + SFFactor + PlateletsFactor + HeartRateFactor

 

 
Calculation Details and Variables
  • AgeFactor is assigned values by this ordered logic:
    • If Age ≥80 yr AgeFactor = 5
    • Else if Age ≥70 yr AgeFactor = 3
    • Else if Age ≥60 yr AgeFactor = 1
    • Else AgeFactor = 0.
  • BUNFactor is assigned values by this ordered logic:
    • If BUN ≥42 mg/dL BUNFactor = 3
    • Else BUNFactor = 0.
  • ComorbiditiesFactor is assigned values by this ordered logic:
    • If Comorbidities ≥2 number ComorbiditiesFactor = 1
    • Else ComorbiditiesFactor = 0.
  • CRPFactor is assigned values by this ordered logic:
    • If CRP ≥100 mg/dL CRPFactor = 1
    • Else CRPFactor = 0.
  • SFRatioFactor is assigned values 0 points for SF Ratio >315, 1 point for SF Ratio 235 to 315, 3 points for SF Ratio 150 to 235, and 6 points for SF Ratio <150.
  • PlateletsFactor is assigned values by this ordered logic:
    • If Platelets <100 x10^9/L PlateletsFactor = 2
    • Else if Platelets ≤150 x10^9/L PlateletsFactor = 1
    • Else PlateletsFactor = 0.
  • HeartRateFactor is assigned values by this ordered logic:
    • If Heart Rate ≥131 beats/min HeartRateFactor = 2
    • Else if Heart Rate ≥91 beats/min HeartRateFactor = 1
    • Else HeartRateFactor = 0.
