INCREMENT-CPE Mortality Score
INCREMENT-CPE mortality score (Gutierrez-Gutierrez 2017): septic shock (5), Pitt bacteremia >= 6 (4), Charlson >= 2 (3), non-urinary/biliary source (3); total 0-15, with >= 8 high risk.

Example
- Severe sepsis or septic shock at presentation
- Yes
- Pitt bacteremia score >= 6
- Yes
Result: INCREMENT-CPE 9 of 15 — high mortality risk (>= 8).
The tool opens with these values already filled in. Replace them with your own.
What the result means
- 0-7
- Low mortality risk.
- 8-15
- High risk of 14-day mortality (septic shock 5, Pitt >= 6 →4, Charlson >= 2 →3, non-urinary/biliary source 3). A prognostic score, not a diagnosis.
What you enter
- Severe sepsis or septic shock at presentation (5)
- Pitt bacteremia score >= 6 (4)
- Charlson comorbidity index >= 2 (3)
- Source other than urinary/biliary tract (3)
