Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is the leading cause of preventable hospital death. National guidelinesrecommend VTE prophylaxis for all medical patients not at low risk. Several VTE risk prediction models have been developed, but no US models have been validated in a medical population. The ACCP recommends use of the Padua risk assessment model with a […]

Abstract Number: 154
Hospital Medicine 2019, March 24-27, National Harbor, Md.
Background: Standard risk prediction tools including the quick-Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) have been validated using in-hospital outcomes (mortality [Died-Hosp] or intensive care unit stay >72 hours [ICU72]). Yet, risk models are often applied to predict outcomes beyond hospitalization, and it is unclear what effect outcome selection has on model performance. We derived independent robust […]
