Multidimensional prognostic index domain phenotypes identified using latent class analysis and mortality in the European Study of Older Subjects With Atrial Fibrillation (EUROSAF).

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The multidimensional prognostic index (MPI), an established tool to predict adverse outcomes, classifies frailty using an aggregate-weighted tripartite scoring system based on 8 domains (low, moderate, or severe risk). However, this approach may fail to capture specific patient phenotypes that can be characterized by separate MPI domains and for whom health outcome risk also differs. OBJECTIVE: We...
