  CONTEXT: Current intensive care unit performance measures include in-hospital mortality after intensive care unit admission. This measure does not account for deaths occurring after transfer to another hospital or soon after discharge and therefore, may be biased. OBJECTIVE: Determine how transfer rates to other acute care hospitals and early post-discharge mortality rates impact hospital performance assessments using an in-hospital mortality mod…

  The model's efficiency, as measured by the ratio of false positives (those predicted to die, but who lived) to true positives (those predicted to die and who did die) ranged from fewer than 1:1 to more than 4:1 as the model's sensitivity increased. This ratio was lower in the two or more ADL difficulty model. A validation test of the prediction model found comparable sensitivity and specificity (c statistic of.69) to the reference model
