[Hanover intensive score. Study on 218 cases ].
We have performed a prospective study (1990-1996) in our intensive care unit in Hospital "C.I. Parhon" Iassy. Our study has 218 critical patients with ARDS and MSOD. For all of them we have used a new scoring system HIS (Hanover Intensive Score) for: the evaluation of patients with ARDS that have the risk to develop MSOD; determine the prognosis in different moments of evolution. In our opinion this score has the following advantages: it is easy to apply; it can determine the prognosis and the probable status of the patient at the moment of outcome; it can be used in our country with the technical that we have and we propose this score for his performances.
