Evaluating risk prediction models for adults with heart failure: A systematic literature review

[摘要] Background The ability to predict risk allows healthcare providers to propose which patients might benefit most from certain therapies, and is relevant to payers’ demands to justify clinical and economic value. To understand the robustness of risk prediction models for heart failure (HF), we conducted a systematic literature review to (1) identify HF risk-prediction models, (2) assess statistical approach and extent of validation, (3) identify common variables, and (4) assess risk of bias (ROB).
