Supportive Care Severity of Illness Score Component for Acute Care Patients
First Claim
1. A computer system for determining a patient'"'"'s severity of illness score (pSIS) for a patient admitted to an acute care healthcare facility, the computer system comprising one or more processors coupled to a computer storage medium, the computer storage medium having stored thereon a plurality of computer software components executable by the one or more processors, the computer software components comprising:
- a receiving module that is configured to receive data corresponding to medical support a patient is receiving from an electronic medical record associated with the patient admitted to an acute care facility, the data associated with support variables present in a patient upon admission or administered to the patient within an initial time period from admission;
an identification module that is configured to identify support variables associated with the patient using the received data; and
a determining module that is configured to determine the pSIS for the patient by summing weights associated with each support variable identified.

Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer storage media are provided for determining a patient'"'"'s severity of illness score (pSIS) for a patient admitted to an acute care facility. Data is received corresponding to medical support a patient is receiving from an electronic medical record associated with the patient admitted to an acute care healthcare facility. The data is associated with support variables present in a patient upon admission or administered to the patient within an initial time period from admission. Support variables include both pharmaceutical-type variables and medical device-type variables. Weights are assigned to each support variable associated with the patient. A patient'"'"'s pSIS is determined by summing the weights. The pSIS accounts for effects that medical support a patient is receiving has on the patient'"'"'s physiology.

10. One or more computer hardware storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to perform a method for determining a patient'"'"'s severity of illness score (pSIS) for a patient admitted to an acute care healthcare facility, the method comprising:
-
receiving data corresponding to corresponding to medical support a patient is receiving from an electronic medical record associated with the patient admitted to an acute care facility, the data associated with support variables present in a patient upon admission or administered to the patient within an initial time period from admission; assigning weights to each support variable present, the weights associated with each support variable derived using logistic regression coefficients associated with each support variable; and determining the pSIS for the patient by summing the weights. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
