Abstrakt: | Methods: A prospective, multicenter, ambulance-based study of adult patients with an acute illness involving six advanced life support units and 38 basic life support units, referring to five emergency departments in Spain. Results: The primary outcome was long-term mortality with a 1-year follow-up. The compared scores included: National Early Warning Score 2, VitalPAC early warning score, modified rapid emergency medicine score (MREMS), Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment, Cardiac Arrest Risk Triage Score, Rapid Acute Physiology Score, and Triage Early Warning Score. Discriminative power [area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC)] and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to compare the scores. Additionally, a Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier method were used. Between 8 October 2019, and 31 July 2021, a total of 2674 patients were selected. The MREMS presented the highest AUC of 0.77 (95% confidence interval, 0.75-0.79), significantly higher than those of the other EWS. It also exhibited the best performance in the DCA and the highest hazard ratio for 1-year mortality [3.56 (2.94-4.31) for MREMS between 9 and 18 points, and 11.71 (7.21-19.02) for MREMS > 18]. Conclusion: Among seven tested EWS, the use of the MREMS presented better characteristics to predict 1-year mortality; however, all these scores present moderate performances.
