History and Physical
This abbreviation appears in the middle of a history and physical examination report, for a patient hospitalized for chest pain and atrial flutter, who later had angioplasty and a stent implanted.
The list reads:
Aspecto General
Cabeza y Cuello
Sistema Nervioso
Repiratorio
Abdomen
Otras Exploraciones
*SAPS*: 33
The only meaning of SAPS I find in the tremedica glossary is " Servicio de Atención y Prevención Sociosanitaria" ... but I don't see how this would relate here. (The report is from Spain ... Palma de Mallorca to be exact.)
Any other ideas for what SAPS stands for, and how to say it in English?
Thanks for your help.

Discussion
"A new Simplified Acute Physiology Score (SAPS II) based on a European/North American multicenter study: The SAPS II includes only 17 variables: 12 physiology variables, age, type of admission (scheduled surgical, unscheduled surgical, or medical), and three underlying disease variables (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, metastatic cancer, and hematologic malignancy).
