The development of a prognostic mortality risk model for hospitalized COVID-19 patients may facilitate patient treatment planning, comparisons of therapeutic strategies, and public health preparations.
We retrospectively reviewed the electronic health records of patients hospitalized within a 13-hospital New Jersey USA network between March 1, 2020 and April 22, 2020 with positive polymerase chain reaction results for SARS-CoV-2, with follow-up through May 29, 2020. With death or hospital discharge by day 40 as the primary endpoint, we used univariate followed by stepwise multivariate proportional hazard models to develop a risk score on one-half the data set, validated on the remainder, and converted the risk score into a patient-level predictive probability of 40-day mortality based on the combined dataset.
The study population consisted of 3123 hospitalized COVID-19 patients; median age 63 years; 60% were men; 42% had >3 coexisting conditions. 713 (23%) patients died within 40 days of hospitalization for COVID-19. From 22 potential candidate factors 6 were found to be independent predictors of mortality and were included in the risk score model: age, respiratory rate ≥25/minute upon hospital presentation, oxygenation <94% on hospital presentation, and pre-hospital comorbidities of hypertension, coronary artery disease, or chronic renal disease. The risk score was highly prognostic of mortality in a training set and confirmatory set yielding in the combined dataset a hazard ratio of 1.80 (95% CI, 1.72, 1.87) for one unit increases. Using observed mortality within 20 equally sized bins of risk scores, a predictive model for an individual's 40-day risk of mortality was generated as -14.258 + 13.460RS + 1.585(RS-2.524)^2-0.403*(RS-2.524)^3. An online calculator of this 40-day COVID-19 mortality risk score is available at www.HackensackMeridianHealth.org/CovidRS.
A risk score using six variables is able to prognosticate mortality within 40-days of hospitalization for COVID-19.

开发一种针对住院 COVID-19 患者的预后死亡风险模型,可能有助于患者的治疗计划、治疗策略的比较和公共卫生准备。
我们回顾性分析了 2020 年 3 月 1 日至 2020 年 4 月 22 日期间在新泽西州美国 13 家医院网络住院的、聚合酶链反应(PCR)检测结果为 SARS-CoV-2 阳性的患者的电子健康记录,并随访至 2020 年 5 月 29 日。以第 40 天的死亡或出院为主要终点,我们首先使用单变量,然后使用逐步多变量比例风险模型,在数据集的一半中开发风险评分,在另一半中验证,并根据综合数据集将风险评分转换为患者水平的 40 天死亡率预测概率。
研究人群包括 3123 名住院 COVID-19 患者;中位年龄 63 岁;60%为男性;42%有>3 种并存疾病。713 例(23%)患者在 COVID-19 住院后 40 天内死亡。从 22 个潜在候选因素中,有 6 个被发现是死亡的独立预测因素,并被纳入风险评分模型:年龄、入院时呼吸频率≥25/分钟、入院时氧饱和度<94%以及高血压、冠状动脉疾病或慢性肾脏疾病等预存合并症。风险评分在训练集和验证集中对死亡率具有高度预测性,在综合数据集中,风险评分每增加 1 单位,风险比为 1.80(95%可信区间,1.72,1.87)。使用风险评分 20 个相等大小的分箱内观察到的死亡率,可以生成一个预测个体 40 天死亡率风险的模型,为-14.258+13.460RS+1.585(RS-2.524)^2-0.403*(RS-2.524)^3。一个在线计算器可用于计算 40 天 COVID-19 死亡率风险评分,网址为 www.HackensackMeridianHealth.org/CovidRS。
使用 6 个变量的风险评分能够预测 COVID-19 住院 40 天内的死亡率。
