Prognosis in critical care

TLDR
This article presents a brief review of the statistical methodology, multiple logistic regression, which underlies most of the models currently used in critical care, and emphasizes the importance of model calibration in this domain.
Abstract
Prognostic risk prediction models have been employed in the intensive care unit (ICU) setting since the 1980s and provide health care providers with important information to help inform decisions related to treatment and prognosis, as well as to compare outcomes across institutions. Prognostic models for critical care are among the most widely utilized and tested predictive models in healthcare. In this article, we review and compare mortality prediction models, including the APACHE (1981), SAPS (1984), APACHE-II (1985), MPM (1987), APACHE-III (1991), SAPS-II (1993), and MPM-II (1993). We emphasize the importance of model calibration in this domain. In addition, we present a brief review of the statistical methodology, multiple logistic regression, which underlies most of the models currently used in critical care.

Calibrating predictive model estimates to support personalized medicine.

TL;DR: Adaptive calibration of predictions (ACP) can generate estimates that may be more suitable for individualized predictions than estimates that are calibrated using existing methods, and is not computationally expensive.

Calibration drift in regression and machine learning models for acute kidney injury.

TL;DR: Efficient and effective updating protocols will be essential for maintaining accuracy of, user confidence in, and safety of personalized risk predictions to support decision-making and should be tailored to account for variations in calibration drift across methods.

The meaning and use of the area under a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.

James A. Hanley, +1 more
- 01 Apr 1982 - 
TL;DR: A representation and interpretation of the area under a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve obtained by the "rating" method, or by mathematical predictions based on patient characteristics, is presented and it is shown that in such a setting the area represents the probability that a randomly chosen diseased subject is (correctly) rated or ranked with greater suspicion than a random chosen non-diseased subject.
