Killip-Kimball 1
The classification or index of heart failure severity in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) was proposed by Killip and Kimball aiming at assessing the risk of in-hospital death and the potential benefit of specific management of care provided in Coronary Care Units (CCU).
The Killip classification is widely used in patients presenting with acute MI for the purpose of risk stratification, as follows:
Killip I: with no clinical signs of heart failure,
Killip II: with rales in the lungs, third heart sound (S3), and elevated jugular venous pressure,
Killip III: with acute pulmonary edema (APE), and
Killip IV: with cardiogenic shock or arterial hypotension (measured as systolic blood pressure < 90 mmHg), and evidence of peripheral vasoconstriction (oliguria, cyanosis, and diaphoresis), with mortality rates of 6%, 17%, 38%, and 81%, respectively.

: Hi Phil. Yes ... we just leave it as KK1 (I had to look this one up years ago to find that it's the same in English)

Thanks. I figured it was English because K doesn't really exist in Spanish.
