Key result
A time-insensitive predictive instrument (TIPI) demonstrated high discrimination for acute hospital mortality in congestive heart failure patients (ROC AUC 0.90).
Why the study?
Can a time-insensitive predictive instrument accurately predict acute hospital mortality in patients with congestive heart failure?

Effect estimate: ROC AUC 0.90
The CHFM-TIPI is a highly discriminative tool for predicting acute hospital mortality in congestive heart failure patients, showing potential for risk-adjusted hospital comparisons.
Selker et al. (1994) conducted an observational in Congestive heart failure (n=401). Time-insensitive predictive instrument (TIPI) was evaluated on Acute hospital mortality (ROC AUC 0.90). A time-insensitive predictive instrument (TIPI) demonstrated high discrimination for acute hospital mortality in congestive heart failure patients (ROC AUC 0.90).
