Behçet's Disease Damage Index

Quantify cumulative organ damage in Behçet's disease using the Behçet's Disease Damage Index (BDI), capturing irreversible damage across ocular, neurological, vascular, and other organ systems.

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Quantify cumulative organ damage in Behçet's disease using the Behçet's Disease Damage Index (BDI), capturing irreversible damage across ocular, neurological, vascular, and other organ systems

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Behçet's Disease Damage Index — The behçet's disease damage index recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Capturing irreversible damage across ocular — The capturing irreversible damage across ocular recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Neurological — The neurological recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Vascular — The vascular recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Other organ systems — The other organ systems recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the bdi result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use
