1 TABLE FOR GRADING THE SEVERITY OF ADVERSE EVENTS Green AEs managed by DTUs REMARK Red Patient referral to provincial hospitals for AE management Note: In the case of patients with events at grade of severity in yellow box, but healthcare professionals at the DTUs are not eligible for treatment can still transfer patients to provincial hospital. In the case of patients with more signs or symptoms occured simultaneously, the severity of events are determined by the highest level of severity of symptoms (see also SOPs in Annex 5). Patients with the event at grade 3 and 4 needs to be hospitalised. Estimating severity grade for parameters not identified in the grading table: Grade 1: Grade 2: Grade 3: Grade 4: :c requires medical or operative to prevent permanent impairment, persistent disability or death PARAMETER GRADE 1 GRADE 2 GRADE 3 GRADE 4 SYSTEMIC Acute systemic allergic reaction Chills Localized urticaria (wheals) with no medical CLINICAL Localized urticaria with medical OR Mild angioedema with no medical Generalized urticaria OR Angioedema with medical OR Symptomatic mild bronchospasm Acute anaphylaxis OR bronchospasm OR laryngeal edema Fatigue Malaise Incapacitating fatigue/ malaise symptoms causing Fever (nonaxillary) C C C > 40.5 C Unintentional weight loss SKIN DERMATOLOGICAL 5 9% loss in body weight from baseline 10 19% loss in body weight from baseline 20% loss in body weight from baseline OR Aggressive [e.g., tube feeding or total parenteral nutrition (TPN)]
