PLoS One. 2020;15(6):e0235117 Authors: Deschepper M, Waegeman W, Vogelaers D, Eeckloo K Abstract Early prediction of in-hospital mortality can improve patient outcome. Current prediction models for in-hospital mortality focus mainly on specific pathologies. Structured pathology data is hospital-wide readily available and is primarily used for e.g. financing purposes. We aim to build a predictive model at admission using the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) codes as predictors and investigate the effect of the self-evident DNR («Do Not Resuscitate») diagnosis codes and palliative care codes. We compare the models…
