Description

Rasmussen et al predicted short-term mortality for an acute medical in-patient. The authors are from Copenhagen University Hospitals.


Patient selection: acute medical in-patient

 

Outcome: risk of in-hospital mortality. Other outcomes 30-day and 90-day mortality

Parameters:

(1) admission NEWS (from 0 to 16)

(2) serum soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) in ng/mL, from 0 to 15

 

The risk of short-term mortality increases with:

(1) an increase in NEWS

(2) an increase in serum suPAR
