AMPREDICT MoRe: Predicting Mortality and Re-amputation Risk after Dysvascular Amputation.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This study aimed to create a novel prediction model (AMPREDICT MoRe) that predicts death and re-amputation after dysvascular amputation, which overcomes prior implementation barriers by using only predictors that are readily available in the electronic health record (EHR).

Methods

This was a retrospective cohort study of 9 221 patients with incident unilateral transmetatarsal, transtibial, or transfemoral amputation secondary to diabetes and or peripheral arterial disease identified in the Veterans Affairs Corporate Data Warehouse between 1 October 2015 and 30 September 2021. The prediction model evaluated factors falling into several key domains: prior revascularisation; amputation level; demographics; comorbidities; mental health; health behaviours; laboratory va
