12 devices — the adjudicated READY set of the Mnemonics Production Dossier: every device verified against named sources in the adjudication pass, its canonical form, variants and rejected forms printed exactly as that pass fixed them.
Older form: ABCD (E = Evolving added later — BMJ Best Practice)
NCI glosses differ slightly ("Color that is uneven"; "Border that is irregular — edges often ragged, notched, or blurred") — same device, different glosses
Deep / surrounding wound infection (the STONEES pair of NERDS)

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.
Note (not a dispute): the final slot prints 'Periosteum' in TeachMeAnatomy/Oxford and 'Pericranium' in Geeky Medics — the same structure (pericranium = periosteum of the skull vault).
FLAG (round-2 adjudication §2): the literal string 'PoRTaBLe' and its order are attested by Zero to Finals alone; the five-tumour set itself is attested by AAFP and Coleman 1997 (printed there in different orders — order carries no clinical meaning here). Rival carriers for the identical set exist (PB KTL / 'Lead Kettle'; 'BLT with a Kosher Pickle') — rival mnemonics, not rival expansions.
The Tamer-supplied list prints this device twice (under surgical-site infection and under wounds/healing) — one device, two listings; this card is that printing, promoted on the primary sources below.
The same framework is carried at M-184 from the dossier's main corpus — the production dossier keeps the two attestations as separate entries, and so does this section.

The score's own caution, which the Tamer-supplied list also prints and the literature supports: LRINEC supports the diagnosis — it does not rule it out.
