Title: | Prediction of in-hospital mortality after acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding: cross-validation of several risk scoring systems | Authors: | Benedeto-Stojanov, Daniela Bjelaković, Milica Stojanov, Dragan Aleksovski, Boris |
Issue Date: | Mar-2022 | Publisher: | SAGE Publications | Journal: | Journal of International Medical Research | Abstract: | <jats:sec><jats:title>Objective</jats:title><jats:p> We aimed to identify the clinical, biochemical, and endoscopic features associated with in-hospital mortality after acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (AUGIB), focusing on cross-validation of the Glasgow-Blatchford score (GBS), full Rockall score (RS), and Cedars-Sinai Medical Center Predictive Index (CSMCPI) scoring systems. </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods</jats:title><jats:p> Our prospective cross-sectional study included 156 patients with AUGIB. Several statistical approaches were used to assess the predictive accuracy of the scoring systems. </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results</jats:title><jats:p> All three scoring systems were able to accurately predict in-hospital mortality (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUC] > 0.9); however, the multiple logistic model separated the presence of hemodynamic instability (state of shock) and the CSMCPI as the only significant predictive risk factors. In compliance with the overall results, the CSMCPI was consistently found to be superior to the other two systems (highest AUC, highest sensitivity and specificity, highest positive and negative predictive values, highest positive likelihood ratio, lowest negative likelihood ratio, and 1-unit increase in CSMCPI associated with 6.3 times higher odds of mortality), outperforming the GBS and full RS. </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions</jats:title><jats:p> We suggest consideration of the CSMCPI as a readily available and reliable tool for accurately predicting in-hospital mortality after AUGIB, thus providing an essential backbone in clinical decision-making. </jats:p></jats:sec> | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12188/27851 | DOI: | 10.1177/03000605221086442 |
