More about: LODS

What it calculates

The “LODS” calculator computes LODS score from 13 parameters: glasgow coma scale (points), heart rate (bpm), systolic bp (mmHg), urea (mmol/L), creatinine (µmol/L), urine output (L/day), mechanical ventilation or cpap (1 = yes), pao₂ (mmHg), fio₂ (%), white blood cells (×10⁹/L), platelets (×10⁹/L), bilirubin (µmol/L), pt > 3 s above standard or < 25% of standard (1 = yes).

Used by professionals and patients to assess health metrics, dosages, and risks.

Example calculation

With parameters Glasgow Coma Scale = 15 points, Heart rate = 90 bpm, Systolic BP = 120 mmHg, Urea = 5 mmol/L, Creatinine = 90 µmol/L, Urine output = 1.5 L/day, Mechanical ventilation or CPAP (1 = yes) = 0, PaO₂ = 90 mmHg, FiO₂ = 21 %, White blood cells = 8 ×10⁹/L, Platelets = 200 ×10⁹/L, Bilirubin = 15 µmol/L, PT > 3 s above standard or < 25% of standard (1 = yes) = 0 the result is 0 (Worst values in the first 24 h in ICU).

How to use

1. Enter glasgow coma scale, heart rate, systolic bp, urea, creatinine, urine output, mechanical ventilation or cpap (1 = yes), pao₂, fio₂, white blood cells, platelets, bilirubin and pt > 3 s above standard or < 25% of standard (1 = yes) — each field above is adjustable with a slider.
2. LODS score is calculated automatically as you type.
3. Check the worked example below to see the formula applied to real numbers.
4. Copy the result or bookmark this calculator.
