Supports considering second-level MPM II0 customization for calibration in European ICUs; leaves open impact on outcomes and need for external validation.
Does second-level customization improve the performance of the admission Mortality Probability Model II (MPM II0) compared to first-level customization in ICU patients?
Second-level customization of the MPM II0 mortality prediction model improves calibration but has minimal impact on discrimination in a diverse European ICU cohort.
