Acute Physiology & Chronic Health Evaluation II. A ‘second generation’ system of objective measures for predicting the outcome of critically ill patients in an ICU based on age, physiologic status and underlying health; it acts as a tool for scoring the severity of illness in patients admitted in an intensive care unit
