9 points; the modified score has no left-shift item (cf. MANTRELS, M-024).
Weighting corrected at adjudication: the dossier's source assigns 2 points to A and T — REJECTED. The canonical modified-Alvarado weighting is Tenderness 2, Leukocytosis 2, as printed here.

Familial Adenomatous Polyposis
Variants & notes — as the dossier prints them
There is nothing here but the name-device — acronym to disease — completely attested by two independent authoritative sources (round-2 adjudication); the hereditary-colorectal material uses the acronym throughout.
Round-2 adjudication candidate N-23 (Corpus 5); production number M-264 assigned at the Wave 3 build — the dossier's M-sequence ended at M-250.

Variants & notes — as the dossier prints them
Letter order follows the validation paper (Woo & Sibbald 2009): Exudate precedes Erythema/edema. REJECTED: the NSW ACI toolkit's reversal of the two E items — a derivative-source error against the paper it cites.
≥3 criteria = treat with a systemic agent. The original 2006 form was STONES, later revised to STONEES (Harris 2016).
Its pairing with NERDS (M-182) is why this card is also cross-referenced into Chapter 2 (pilonidal wounds), exactly as the dossier prints it.
