Table 1. Observed and Predicted Mortality and New Functional Morbidity in RACHS and STAT Categories.
Both observed and predicted mortality and functional morbidity rates increased with increasing severity categories for both systems (both p < 0.0001 Predicted new functional morbidity rates also increased with increasing severity categories (RACHS: p=0.0032; STAT: p=0.0009).
