Promising algorithms to perilous applications: a systematic review of risk stratification tools for predicting healthcare utilisation by Hutan Ashrafian, Jessica Morley, Joe Zhang, Christopher Oddy

“…Existing work broadly focuses on comparing model performance in retrospective cohorts with little attention paid to efficacy in reducing morbidity when deployed in different global contexts. We review the evidence supporting the use of such tools in real-world settings, from retrospective dataset performance to pathway evaluation.Methods A systematic search was undertaken to identify studies reporting the development, validation and deployment of models that predict healthcare utilisation in unselected primary care cohorts, comparable to their current real-world application.Results Among 3897 articles screened, 51 studies were identified evaluating 28 risk prediction models. …”
