LOINC description : The American Urology Association Symptom Index (AUA-SI) score is the cumulative score
of answers to 7 questions. The answer to each question gets a score of 0 to 5, so
the possible range of total symptom scores is 0-35. The International Prostate Symptoms
Score (IPSS) uses the same symptom scoring as the AUASI; the score for the additional
quality of life question in the IPSS survey is not part of the total symptom score
calculation but the two can be used in conjunction to monitor treatment efficacy.;
