Exploring the impact of age on the predictive power of the National Early Warning score (NEWS) 2, and long-term prognosis among patients reviewed by a Rapid Response Team: A prospective, multi-centre study
Adding age as a covariate improved the discriminative ability of NEWS 2 in the prediction of 30-day mortality among RRT-reviewed patients, with variations observed across age categories. The long- term prognosis of RRT-reviewed patients was poor.
