Worked calculation
The values below come from this tool's own example placeholders and are computed server-side with the formula shown on this page, so the arithmetic can be checked quickly. It demonstrates how to substitute values only — it is not clinical advice and not a real case.
| Albumin < 3.0 g/dL | No |
|---|---|
| INR > 1.5 | No |
| Altered mental status | No |
| Systolic BP ≤ 90 mmHg | No |
| Age > 65 | No |
→AIMS650/5
- Approx. in-hospital mortality:0.3%
- Note:Lower risk.
| Albumin < 3.0 g/dL | Yes (+1) |
|---|---|
| INR > 1.5 | Yes (+1) |
| Altered mental status | Yes (+1) |
| Systolic BP ≤ 90 mmHg | Yes (+1) |
| Age > 65 | Yes (+1) |
→AIMS655/5
- Approx. in-hospital mortality:25%
- Note:Higher risk — consider closer monitoring and early endoscopy.
