MMCD Score Interpretation

Data action

     
 
Include literature references: Yes   No

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.

Equations used


MMCDScore = Mechanical ventilation (before any dialysis) + Sex + CreatinineFactor + Diabetes
 

Calculation details and variables

  • Equation parameters such as Mechanical ventilation (before any dialysis), have two or more discrete values that may be used in the calculation. The numbers in the parentheses, e.g. (0), represent the values that will be used.
  • CreatinineFactor is assigned values by this ordered logic:
    • If Creatinine on Admission ≥5 mg/dL, CreatinineFactor = 10
    • Else if Creatinine on Admission ≥3.5 mg/dL, CreatinineFactor = 4
    • Else if Creatinine on Admission ≥2 mg/dL, CreatinineFactor = 2
    • Else if Creatinine on Admission ≥1.2 mg/dL, CreatinineFactor = 1
    • Else CreatinineFactor = 0.
