I am using the following code https://github.com/MIT-LCP/mimic-code/blob/main/mimic-iii/concepts/severityscores/lods.sql
to calculate lods score.
Is this the right one to use?
I noticed in the code,
for renal score it has - " when bun_max >= 7.50 then 1" which seems not right as the one above "bun_max >= 17.0 then 1" is the right one (i.e 17.0 to 28.0 is I think considered score of 1).
Also i noticed in a related query, #112,
the code is bit different (and units are also different) but seems right(when (BUN_Max >= 6 and BUN_Max <10) then 1).:
Could someone clear my doubt about, whether am i using the right code and whether the additional line in the first code affects the calculation for renal score?

fix: drop LODS BUN >= 7.50 mg/dL score band

Fixed in #2124 — removed the BUN >= 7.50 band (mmol/L cutpoint on mg/dL data). Thresholds now stop at >= 17.
