1 Introduction
This document describes the CDISC implementation of the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) instrument. CDISC did not modify this questionnaires, ratings, and scales (QRS) instrument to meet Clinical Data Acquisition Standards Harmonization (CDASH) case report form (CRF) standardsthe ASSIGN CVD 10-YEAR RISK instrument.
The ASSIGN CVD 10-YEAR RISK does not have a CRF and the algorithm to calculate the ASSIGN CVD 10-YEAR RISK is in the public domain.
The representation of data collected for this instrument is this clinical classification is based on the Study Data Tabulation Model Implementation Guide (SDTMIG) Disease Response and Clin Classification (RS) domain model, which can be found on the CDISC website at: https://www.cdisc.org/standards/foundational/sdtmig.
These specific implementation details for this instrument clinical classification are meant to be used in conjunction with the SDTMIG. All CDISC QRS documentation packages clinical classifications documentation can be found on the CDISC website CDISC web site at: https://www.cdisc.org/standards/foundational/qrs.

2 Copyright Status
CDISC believes this instrument is to be in the public domain, but you should perform your own assessment. CDISC CDISC has included the APACHE II in ASSIGN CVD 10-YEAR RISK in the CDISC inventory library of QRS data standards supplements. Hence Hence, CDISC developed RSTESTCD and RSTEST for each item based on the actual text on the instrument. There may be many versions of this instrumentthis instrument. CDISC has chosen to use this version as the data standard.
The CDISC documentation of this instrument measure consists of: (1) controlled terminology, (2) standard database structure with examples, and (3) CRF(s) annotated with the CDISC SDTMIG variables with submission values. .

3 The RS Domain Model
3.1 Assumptions for
...
Disease Response and Clin Classification Domain Model
All assumptions and business rules described in the SDTMIG RS SDTMIG RS domain are applicable to this supplement. Additional assumptions specific to the APACHE II are listed below.
The QRS APACHE II is a severity-of-disease classification system that uses a point score based on the initial values of 12 routine physiologic measurements, age, and previous health status. Scores range from 0 to 71 and higher scores correspond to more severe disease and a higher risk of death. The composite score is based on findings represented in other SDTM domains such as Laboratory Test Results (LB) and Vital Signs (VS).
The APACHE II provides weightings for 12 physiology measures, the sum of which yields a total acute physiology score (APS). This weighting system for 11 of the physiology measures is based on a numeric rating scale (0-4) where 0 reflects values within the normal range and an increase in the numeric rating scale represents an increase in the abnormality of the physiology measure in either the high or low direction.
For example, the rating of 4 for heart rate (ventricular response) may coincide with multiple definitions depending on whether the abnormality is in the high or low direction (e.g., 4 = ">=180" or 4 = "<=39", respectively).
Note that the score for the Glasgow Coma Score (GCS), the final physiology measure, is the reverse; lower scores indicate mild or no head injury and higher scores represent more severe head injury.
Age and severe chronic health problems reflect diminished physiologic reserve; these have been directly incorporated into APACHE II. Chronological age is a well-documented risk factor for death from acute illness that is independent of severity of disease. This item includes a numeric rating (0, 2, 3, 5, 6) and a definition of what is represented by the rating (e.g., 6 = ">=75" years in age).
Severe chronic organ system insufficiency or immunocompromised state markedly influenced outcome. Nonoperative and emergency surgery admissions had a substantially higher risk for death from prior chronic conditions than did elective surgical admissions. This indicates that patients with the most severe chronic conditions are not considered to be candidates for elective surgery. For patients with a history of severe organ system insufficiency or who are immunocompromised, a numeric rating of 2 or 5 is assigned for chronic health points, where 2 is assigned “for elective postoperative patients” and 5 is assigned “for nonoperative or emergency postoperative patients”.
For the APACHE II, RSORRES is populated with the text description; the numeric rating is represented in the standardized character and numeric result variables RSSTRESC and RSSTRESN.
Records are created in rs.xpt (or in split rsap.xpt) for every item on the instrument.
For items with no data, RSORRES, RSSTRESC, and RSSTRESN are all missing and RSSTAT = "NOT DONE". If the reason is known then that reason is represented in RSREASND (e.g., RSREASND = "PREFER NOT TO ANSWER"). If the reason is unknown, then RSSTAT = "NOT DONE" and RSREASND is missing.
Some items on the QRS APACHE II may be not done due to conditional branching per the instrument instructions.
The equation for computing the alveolar-arterial O2 gradient is heavily dependent on inspired O2 levels, so there are 2 methods for calculating oxygenation. When inspired O2 levels ≥ 0.5 use the alveolar-arterial O2 gradient and complete RSTESTCD = "APCH105A". When inspired O2 levels < 0.5 use the partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) and complete RSTESTCD = "APCH105B". The other will be treated as not done due to conditional branching.
In addition, arterial pH (RSTESTCD = "APCH106A") is preferred but in cases where oxygenation is normal and blood gases are not measured, serum HCO3 (RSTESTCD = "APCH106B") can be substituted. Only 1 of these 2 physiological parameters will be measured and the other will be treated as not done due to conditional branching.
In addition, a chronic health response, item RSTESTCD = "APCH115", is only assigned (along with the points) when the patient has a history of severe organ system insufficiency or is immunocompromised. Otherwise it will be not done due to conditional branching.
A record is created in rs.xpt for all items. When an item is considered conditionally branched, it is represented as follows:
RSSTAT = "NOT DONE"
RSDRVFL = "Y" (the record is derived as a "NOT DONE" record)
- QNAM = “RSCBRFL”, QLABEL = “Conditional Branched Item Indicator “, QVAL = “Y” (RS supplemental qualifier variable)
RSORRES, RSSTRESC, and RSSTRESN are set to null (missing)
The APACHE II instrument includes a total APS and total APACHE II score which are considered as captured data on the CRF and not considered as derived in the example below. These scores may be submitted in SDTM or derived in the Analysis Data Model (ADaM) per scoring instructions on the CRF. If scores are received by the sponsor,
It is recommended that they are submitted to SDTM and verified in ADaM.
Terminology
RSCAT, RSTESTCD, RSTEST, and RSORRESU values are included in CDISC Controlled Terminology.
A full list of value sets for the result and unit fields are provided in Section 4, SDTM Mapping Strategy.
3.2 Example for the QRS APACHE II RS Domain Model
The rsap.xpt dataset represents the items from the APACHE II. The RS domain was split into 2 physically separate datasets: the APACHE II instrument (rsap.xpt) and the GCS (rsgc.xpt). Each dataset represents a subset of the RS domain. Note: In this example, the vital sign and lab values used to answer the APACHE II items were also collected and represented separately in the VS and LB domains. RSLNKID is used to link the APACHE II records to their corresponding findings in their respective source domains. This relationship is defined in the RELREC table.
The APACHE II example below shows the terminology used to implement the instrument in the RS domain. This example shows the data for 2 subjects collected at visit 1 for the APACHE II instrument. The example uses CDISC Controlled Terminology for RSTESTCD, RSTEST, RSCAT, and RSORRESU. All original results, matching the CRF item response text, are represented in RSORRES. This result is then represented as a standard numeric score in RSSTRESN and as a standard character representation in RSSTRESC
The table represents the items from the APACHE II instrument.

Show that this subject was evaluated for oxygenation (mmHg) where FIO2 is less than 0.5, so PaO2 is recorded. Oxygenation (mmHg) for A-aDO2, where FIO2 is greater than or equal to 0.5, is shown as not done due to conditional branching.
...
Show that this subject was evaluated for arterial pH. Serum HCO3 (venous mmol/L) is shown as not done due to conditional branching since arterial pH is preferred when arterial blood gases are available.
...
Show the subject was not evaluated on this instrument at visit 1. A record for each item on the instrument is created with a status of "NOT DONE". Since the reason for not completing the visit was not collected, no date is assumed for when the visit would have occurred. No assumptions are made about which items were not done based on conditional branching.

The following dataset represents source-data GCS scores which were input into the APACHE II. Note that RSSEQ is set to start at 101 for each subject within this split RS domain as APACHE II is only collected once during the study (at VISITNUM=1). RSGRPID in the split domain below matches RSGRPID for the corresponding record in the preceding RS domain example.

the ASSIGN Cardiovascular Disease 10-Year Risk Score (ASSIGN CVD 10-YEAR RISK) are listed below.
The ASSIGN Cardiovascular Disease 10-Year Risk Score (ASSIGN CVD 10-YEAR RISK) describes the cardiovascular risk of the subject. The score is expressed as a percentage.
- The ASSIGN Cardiovascular Disease 10-Year Risk Score is derived via an algorithm that includes labs, vital signs, medical history, substance use, social deprivation and demography. Please refer to Appendix 1 of the reference cited above for the algorithm calculation. This is considered captured data and not a derivation.
- Social deprivation is represented with the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD) and comes from a database which uses the postal code of the subject. The SIMD is collected and used to calculate the ASSIGN, however is considered to be a possible privacy issue. Therefore it is not submitted and is not represented in the example below.
- Terminology:
- RSCAT, RSTESTCD and RSTEST are approved CDISC controlled terminology.
The value sets for the result field are not provided in Section 4, SDTM Mapping Strategy, since there is only a single numeric percentage result.
3.2 Example for the RS Domain Model
The ASSIGN CVD 10-YEAR RISK Score example below shows the terminology used to implement this clinical classification measure in the RS domain. This example shows data collected for the ASSIGN CVD 10-YEAR RISK Score for two subjects, one has only one visit and the other has two visits. The example uses CDISC controlled terminology for RSTESTCD, RSTEST, and RSCAT. SCTESTCD and SCTEST are not represented here for the SIMD per assumption 2. Data that is used for input to the composite scores such as labs, vital signs, substance use, social deprivation and medical history are included in its original domain and the relationship to the RS domain should be defined using the RELREC domain. The ASSIGN CVD 10-YEAR RISK is represented in the RS domain and is linked to the other domains in RELREC by the RSLNKID.
The table represents the items from the ASSIGN CVD 10-YEAR RISK instrument. The USUBJID = "1001-002" was not evaluated for this instrument at visit 5. Since the visit was missed, the reason for not completing the visit was not collected, so no date is assumed for when the visit would have occurred.
