Core Tip |
Portsmouth modification of Physiological and operative severity for the enumeration of mortality and morbidity (P-POSSUM) and the acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHE II) have been the most widely used scoring systems for emergency laparotomies. Till date no study with statistically significant sample size has compared them in predicting mortality in emergency laparotomies. P-POSSUM cannot be done for patients who are managed conservatively and can be scored only when histopathology reports are available. In this study, both P-POSSUM and APACHE II were found to be equally accurate. Therefore, APACHE-II scoring system can be used as effectively as P-POSSUM with the added advantage that it can be used in the acute stratification of the patients into risk groups even before surgery. |
