Brief summary

The purpose of the study is to generate and valid a co-morbidity score with updated definitions and suitable for use in Argentina in both public and private settings. These tools would allow us to compare different populations in Argentina adjusting for comorbidities. Also, this would potentially help attending physicians and health administrators.

Detailed description

The investigators will generate a co-morbidity score, perform the score validation and generate an online calculator for the score (open access). Finally, a score validation for extreme values of score will be performed to ensure representativeness of these patients.
