THRIVE Score
Hello!
Any interest in adding the Totaled Health Risks in Vascular Events (THRIVE) Score for outcome prediction in acute ischemic stroke? It has been externally validated in patients receiving no acute treatment, IV tPA, and endovascular stroke treatment. For more information, check out www.thrivescore.org. I can send you the papers if you are interested.
Cheers,
Dr. Alex Flint

Changing perfusion pumps with different concentrations and dosing
Hi, I think there could be another formula set added that is useful for transportation issues. We often take over patients with running iv drugs for hemodynamic support that are relevant to be taken over in a correct manner to provide improved patient safety. If you are interested, I have made an Excel sheet to calculate doses so that you can work with your own well known standards. There is no need to change routines any more. If you are intersted, we can get into contact for further details. Best regards, Christian Seidl, MD, Bern University Hospital, Switzerland

DLCO correction for hemoglobin
Abnormal hemoglobin (Hb) levels can affect the diffusing capacity and, if known, should be used to mathematically correct the measured diffusing capacity to normal Hb.
Adjusted DLCO (adolescent males and men): Hb adjusted DLCO (DLCOc) = measured DLCO ([10.22 + Hb g/dL]/[1.7 Hb])
Hb adjusted DLCO (children < 15 y and women): Hb adjusted DLCO (DLCOc) = measured DLCO ([9.38 + Hb g/dL]/[1.7 Hb])
The measured DLCO also can be adjusted for elevated levels of carboxyhemoglobin, as follows: Carboxyhemoglobin-adjusted DLCO (DLCOc) = measured DLCO (1 + [%CO Hb/100])

DECAF score
The DECAF score: predicting hospital mortality in exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Steer J et al
These researchers analysed admission data and in-hospital deaths among 920 consecutive patients hospitalised for a COPD exacerbation to identify outcome predictors; mean FEV1 was 43.6% of predicted and 10.4% of patients died in hospital. They then combined the five strongest mortality predictors to form the ‘DECAF’ score. DECAF exhibited excellent discrimination for mortality (area under the receiver operator characteristic curve 0.86 [95% CI 0.82, 0.89]). Moreover, DECAF performed better than other clinical prediction tools; for example, it was a significantly stronger predictor of…
