Development and validation of multivariable mortality risk-prediction models in older people undergoing an interRAI home-care assessment (RiskOP).

ABSTRACT:

Background

Currently, one-year survival of older people with complex co-morbidities is unpredictable. Identifying older adults with a reduced life expectancy will lead to more targeted care and better healthcare resource allocation.

Methods

Development and validation of one-year and three-month mortality risks in people aged ≥65 years who had completed an International Resident Assessment Instrument-Home Care (interRAI-HC) assessment between July 2012 and March 2018. Data was split into development (90%) and validation data sets (10%). A multivariable logistic regression model using data from 108 interRAI questions across multiple domains was developed and validated using discrimination metrics and calibration curves. Variables each explaining at least 1% of the model were t
