Eight criteria: migration of pain to RLQ, neutrophilia >75%, leukocytosis >10k, nausea/vomiting, fever >38°C, anorexia, RLQ tenderness on palpation (2), RLQ pain with cough/percussion/hopping (2). Use with clinical judgment and imaging when indicated. Use the interactive calculator for inputs, limitations, and primary references.
