Risk Prediction Models for Hospital Mortality in General Medical Patients: A Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To systematically review contemporary prediction models for hospital mortality developed or validated in general medical patients.

Methods

We screened articles in five databases, from January 1, 2010, through April 7, 2022, and the bibliography of articles selected for final inclusion. We assessed the quality for risk of bias and applicability using the Prediction Model Risk of Bias Assessment Tool (PROBAST) and extracted data using the Critical Appraisal and Data Extraction for Systematic Reviews of Prediction Modelling Studies (CHARMS) checklist. Two investigators independently screened each article, assessed quality, and extracted data.

Results

From 20,424 unique articles, we identified 15 models in 8 studies across 10 countries. The studies included 280,
