Prognostic Modeling and Major Dataset Shifts During the Covid-19 Pandemic
At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, it was clear that existing recommendations for allocating scarce resources in large disasters were ill-suited for a worldwide respiratory-based pandemic. 1 Yet, more than 2 years and 100 published models later, no consensus has emerged on a modeling approach to determine SARS-CoV-2 mortality risk or progression to severe disease. The methodologic shortfalls of these efforts have been well described, 2 bu…
All Public Health is Local
BACKGROUND: During the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic cumulative United States COVID-19 deaths per capita were higher than all other large, high-income nations, but with substantial variation across the country. OBJECTIVE: The aim was to detail the public health response during the pandemic in Eagle County, Colorado. RESEARCH DESIGN AND MEASURES: Observational study using pre-COVID-19 county public health metrics. Pandemic actions w…
Apache Ii
This paper presents the form and validation results of APACHE II, a severity of disease classification system. APACHE II uses a point score based upon initial values of 12 routine physiologic measurements, age, and previous health status to provide a general measure of severity of disease. An increasing score (range 0 to 71) was closely correlated with the subsequent risk of hospital death for 5815 intensive care admissions from 13 hospitals. Thi…
Identification of Low-Risk Monitor Patients Within a Medical-Surgical Intensive Care Unit
We studied the hospital course of 1148 consecutive intensive care unit (ICU) admissions to test the feasibility of identifying patients suitable for early transfer. Based on the type of treatment each admission received during the initial 16 hours in ICU, we divided the patients into active treatment or monitored categories. Which of the 513 monitored admissions received active treatment before discharge was analyzed with a multivariate logistic …
