Dear All, Last year I had asked you about the clinical prediction rules you currently use, and compiled a (short) list. We are going to ask you to do a survey on these shortly, but just wanted to get a full listing before we do. So can I ask you to check the list below and add any other clinical prediction rules/score that you use in clinical practice? Ottawa ankle rules for ankle fracture Framingham CVD 5-year risk score (eg Rod Jackson's) Simplified Walsh strep throat rule (5 items) Wells DVT rules Whooley 2-questions for depression (or the new 3-question version) Appendicitis - Alvarado score Mini-cog for dementia Ottawa cervical spine rule Ottawa knee rule for knee fracture Pneumonia mortality rule Bishop score for cervical ripening for prediction of induction of labor. Apgar score for neonatal asphyxia. ABCD rule for stroke risk after a TIA Many thanks, -- Paul Glasziou Director, Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine, Department of Primary Health Care, University of Oxford www.cebm.net ph +44-1865-227055 fax +44-1865-227036
