Results of the scoring exercise. The results of the scoring exercise completed by researchers involved in a large randomized placebo-controlled critical care trial illustrating individual scores, standard deviations and inter-quartile ranges of case scenarios with adjudicated total APACHE II scores of 44, 22 and 19. ¹Correct classification is determined by the adjudicated score being either APACHE II ≥25 or APACHE II <25. ²Standard deviation is calculated using the adjudicated APACHE II score in place of the mean APACHE II score.
