Abstract
Aim
Although early detection of patients' deterioration may improve outcomes, most of the detection criteria use on-the-spot values of vital signs. We investigated whether adding trend values over time enhanced the ability to predict adverse events among hospitalized patients.
Methods
Patients who experienced adverse events, such as unexpected cardiac arrest or unplanned ICU admission were enrolled in this retrospective study. The association between the events and the combination of vital signs was evaluated at the time of the worst vital signs 0-8 hours before events (near the event) and at 24-48 hours before events (baseline). Multivariable logistic analysis was performed, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was used to assess the prediction power for adverse events among various combinations of vital sign parameters.
Results
Among 24,509 in-patients, 54 patients experienced adverse events(cases) and 3,116 control patients eligible for data analysis were included. At the timepoint near the event, systolic blood pressure (SBP) was lower, heart rate (HR) and respiratory rate (RR) were higher in the case group, and this tendency was also observed at baseline. The AUC for event occurrence with reference to SBP, HR, and RR was lower when evaluated at baseline than at the timepoint near the event (0.85 [95%CI: 0.79-0.92] vs. 0.93 [0.88-0.97]). When the trend in RR was added to the formula constructed of baseline values of SBP, HR, and RR, the AUC increased to 0.92 [0.87-0.97].
Conclusion
Trends in RR may enhance the accuracy of predicting adverse events in hospitalized patients.
