Description

The NCCN International Prognostic Index (IPI) (previously only "IPI") is used to define risk groups for specific lymphomas using a 0-8 score range, based on age, stage, number of extranodal sites of involvement, patient's performance status and pretreatment LDH level.

Rationale

NCCN International Prognostic Index (IPI) is a Registry Data Collection Variable in AJCC. It was previously collected for Lymphomas, SSF# 3.

Codes

00-08	0-8 points
X1	Stated as low risk (0-1 point)
X2	Stated as low intermediate risk (2-3 points)
X3	Stated as intermediate risk (4-5 points)
X4	Stated as high risk (6-8 points)
X8	Not applicable: Information not collected for this case (If this item is required by your standard setter, use of code X8 will result in an edit error.)
X9	Not documented in medical record NCCN International Prognostic Index (IPI) not assessed or unknown if assessed

Each Site-Specific Data Item (SSDI) applies only to selected primary sites, histologies, and years of diagnosis. Depending on applicability and standard-setter requirements, SSDIs may be left blank.
