Appendicitis Risk

Appendicitis Risk is a tool to help evaluate patients with suspected acute appendicitis.

This application is based on the Alvarado score.

For over 20 years this score has been an important tool for the evaluation of patients with suspected acute appendicitis, having proven useful in numerous articles.

This score is based on the evaluation of symptoms, signs, and laboratory data, with a value ranging from 0 to 10, and allows stratification of patients with suspected acute appendicitis in groups of low, moderate or high risk.

In addition, we present in this application for a review of the recent literature on the role of the Alvarado score today.

Appendicitis Risk is an essential tool for primary care physicians, emergency physicians and surgeons.
