The patient's probabily for Any complication within 30 Days post operatively is:
Each percentage is unique to the patient's information and to the surgical intervention.
The probability incorporates any complication for example: any type of infection (skin, wound dehiscence, UTI), hematologic problems (blood clot),internal organ problems (pneumonia, heart attack).

The patient's probabily for an Infectious complication within 30 Days post operatively is:
Each percentage is unique to the patient's information and to the surgical intervention.
This probability incorporates only infectious complications for example: superficial or deep skin infection to more complicated systemtic infections like a urinary tract infection or sepsis.
Click the 'Calculate' button to update complication probabilities displayed above.
The patient's probabily for a Hematologic complication within 30 Days post operatively is:
Each percentage is unique to the patient's information and to the surgical intervention.
This probability incorporates only hematologic complications (Blood). Some examples include: blood clots and pulmonary embolism (blood clot that travels to lungs and need inpatient blood thinners).
Click the 'Calculate' button to update complication probabilities displayed above.
The patient's probabily for an Internal Organ complication within 30 Days post operatively is:
Each percentage is unique to the patient's information and to the surgical intervention.
The probability incorporates only internal organ complications, some examples include: pneumonia, acute kidney dysfunction or progressive failure, heart attack.
Click the 'Calculate' button to update complication probabilities displayed above.
Each complication tab on the pre-operative questionnaire page provides probabilities for that chosen complication category.
The output will provide a predicted probability for developing an Overall, Infectious, Hematologic, or Internal Organ Complication within 30 Days after surgery in the Results Tab.
Functional status? Does the patient need assistance with their daily routine?
Is the patient being treated for hypertension or high blood pressure?
Does the patient have a bleeding disorder or take anticoagulation medication?
Is the patient having lymph node surgery?
Will the patient have a drain or wound assist device after surgery?
