Evaluating risk stratification scoring systems to predict mortality in patients with COVID-19 by Naveen Garg, Kelly Chu, Batool Alharahsheh, Payal Guha

“…Background The COVID-19 pandemic has necessitated efficient and accurate triaging of patients for more effective allocation of resources and treatment.Objectives The objectives are to investigate parameters and risk stratification tools that can be applied to predict mortality within 90 days of hospital admission in patients with COVID-19.Methods A literature search of original studies assessing systems and parameters predicting mortality of patients with COVID-19 was conducted using MEDLINE and EMBASE.Results 589 titles were screened, and 76 studies were found investigating the prognostic ability of 16 existing scoring systems (area under the receiving operator curve (AUROC) range: 0.550–0.966), 38 newly developed COVID-19-specific prognostic systems (AUROC range: 0.6400–0.9940), 15 artificial intelligence (AI) models (AUROC range: 0.840–0.955) and 16 studies on novel blood parameters and imaging.Discussion Current scoring systems generally underestimate mortality, with the highest AUROC values found for APACHE II and the lowest for SMART-COP. …”
