Introduction: acute appendicitis is the leading cause of emergency surgery in general surgery. Its diagnosis remains eminently clinical, and there are tools like the Alvarado´s score that allow a better assessment in the accurate diagnosis of the condition. Objective: to evaluate the usefulness of Alvarado´s Score in the clinical diagnosis of acute appendicitis. Material and Methods: an evaluation study of diagnostic tools was carried out, in which an assessment was performed on patients with acute abdominal pain and presumptive diagnosis of acute appendicitis. The Alvarado´s scale was used, by means of which sensitivity, specificity, predictive values, and likelihood ratios were assessed. Results: of all patients (533), appendicitis was...
