phoenix_endocrine: Phoenix Endocrine Score

In phoenix: The Phoenix Pediatric Sepsis and Septic Shock Criteria

Phoenix Endocrine Score

Description

Assess the Phoenix endocrine organ dysfunction score. This score is not part of the Phoenix score, only part of the Phoenix-8 score.

Usage

phoenix_endocrine(glucose = NA_real_, data = parent.frame(), ...)

Arguments

glucose	numeric vector; blood glucose measured in mg/dL
data	a list, data.frame, or environment containing the input vectors
...	pass through

Value

a integer vector with values 0 or 1

As with all other Phoenix organ system scores, missing values in the data set will map to a score of zero - this is consistent with the development of the criteria.

Phoenix Endocrine Scoring

The endocrine dysfunction score is based on blood glucose with one point for levels < 50 mg/dL or > 150 mg/dL.

Examples

# using the example sepsis data set
# recall glucose is expected to have units of mg/dL

endo_example       <- sepsis[c("pid", "glucose")]
endo_example$score <- phoenix_endocrine(glucose, data = sepsis)

# example data set to get all the possible endocrine scores
# recall glucose is expected to have units of mg/dL

DF <- data.frame(glc = c(NA, 12, 50, 55, 100, 150, 178))
