Prediction models of all-cause mortality among older adults in nursing home setting: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background and aims

Few studies have meta-analyzed different prognostic models developed for older adults, especially nursing home residents. We aimed to systematically review and meta-analyze the performance of all published models that predicted all-cause mortality among older nursing home residents.
