van Walraven et al reported the Hospital-patient One-year Mortality Risk (HOMR) for a predicting one-year mortality for a hospitalized patient. It consists of multiple measures, one of which is the admission diagnosis.
Patient selection: hospitalized patient >= 20
There are 2 options for scoring. One is to score the chief complaint. The second is to list all of major diagnoses present. Since it is referred to as a score the latter option will be used.
