A Clinical Predictive Model for One-year Colectomy in Adults Hospitalized for Severe Ulcerative Colitis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Models to predict colectomy in ulcerative colitis (UC) are valuable for identification, clinical management, and follow-up of high-risk patients. Our aim was to develop a clinical predictive model based on admission data for one-year colectomy in adults hospitalized for severe UC.

Methods

We performed a retrospective analysis of patients hospitalized at a tertiary academic center for management of severe UC from 1/2013 to 4/2018. Multivariate regression was performed to identify individual predictors of one-year colectomy. Outcome probabilities of colectomy based on the prognostic score were estimated using a bootstrapping technique.

Results

Two hundred twenty-nine individuals were included in the final analytic cohort. Four independent variables were assoc
