ABSTRACT
Background:
Previous studies have shown that the frailty index based on laboratory tests (FI-Lab) can identify older adults at increased risk of adverse health outcomes. This study aimed to determine whether the FI-Lab is associated with mortality risk and can provide incremental improvements in risk stratification of patients with critical acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Materials andmethods:
We conducted a secondary analysis of data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC)-IV database. A 33-item FI-Lab was constructed. Outcomes of interest were in-hospital and 1-year mortality. Logistic regression models were used to investigate the association between the FI-Lab and outcomes. For the assessment of the incremental predictive value, the FI-Lab was added to several risk stratification scoring systems for critically ill patients, and the following indices were calculated Δ C-statistic, integrated discrimination improvement (IDI), and net reclassification improvement (NRI).Results:
Out of 2,159 patients, 477 died in hospital (22.1%), and 898 died during the 1-year follow-up period. After adjustment for confounders, the FI-Lab was associated with increased in-hospital mortality [odds ratio (OR) = 1.06, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.05-1.07] and 1-year mortality (OR = 1.05, 95% CI 1.04-1.06) when assessed as a continuous variable (per 0.01-score increase). When assessed as a categorical variable, the FI-Lab was associated with in-hospital mortality (2nd Quartile OR = 1.89, 95% CI 1.18-3.03; 3rd Quartile OR = 3.46, 95% CI 2.20-5.46; and 4th Quartile OR = 5.79, 95% CI 3.61-9.28 compared to 1st Quartile) as well as 1-year mortality (2nd Quartile OR = 1.66, 95% CI 1.23-2.24; 3rd Quartile OR = 2.40, 95% CI 1.76-3.26; and 4th Quartile OR = 3.76, 95% CI 2.66-5.30 compared to 1st Quartile) after adjustment for confounders. The addition of the FI-Lab to all disease severity scores improved discrimination and significantly reclassified in-hospital and 1-year mortality risk.Conclusion:
The FI-Lab was a strong predictor of short- and long-term mortality in patients with critical AMI. The FI-Lab improved the ability to predict mortality in patients with critical AMI and therefore might be useful in the clinical decision-making process.
