Attia Criteria for Pharyngitis

Calculates an estimated likelihood of streptococcal pharyngitis using a standardized set of clinical parameters. The tool guides users through evaluating various symptoms and physical findings commonly associated with sore throats, such as tonsillar exudate or absence of cough. By inputting observed patient characteristics, the calculator applies the established Attia scoring criteria to generate an objective risk assessment score for bacterial infection. Clinicians, medical students, and healthcare professionals utilize this resource to standardize the initial evaluation of pharyngitis. It assists in making a preliminary determination regarding whether further diagnostic testing, such as rapid strep tests or culture, is warranted.
