PROFUND index and intrahospital mortality in plurypathological patients. A post-hoc analysis

The PROFUND index was developed and valid to predict mortality at 12 months in polypathological patients (PP). However, its potential value for predicting in-hospital mortality has not been sufficiently studied. The ability of the PROFUND index in comparison with C-reactive protein (CRP), albumin, and red blood cell distribution width (RDW) to predict in-hospital mortality was evaluated through the subsequent analysis of a prospective cohort of 111 multiple pathological patients admitted to the clinic medical. The mean age was 75.8 ± 9.3 years. In-hospital mortality was 17% (19 patients). The median (IQR) of the PROFUND index, albumin, CRP and ADE in the deceased and survivors was 12 (4) and 6 (7) p < 0.0001, 2.5 (0.4) and 2.6 (0.8) p 0.295, 58 (64) and 40 (60) p 0.176, 14.5 (2) and 14.6 (3) p 0.523, respectively. The multivariate logistic analysis showed that the PROFUND index is associated with in-hospital mortality (p 0.0003). The risk of dying during hospitalization is 20% higher for each point that the PROFUND index increases (OR 1.2, 95% CI 1.1-1.4). The area under the curve the receiver operating characteristic (AUC-ROC) of the PROFUND index to predict mortality during hospitalization (0.760, 95% CI 0.628-0.891) was higher than that of the RDW, CRP and albumin (0.494 95% CI 0.364-0.624 p 0.012; 0.583 95% CI 0.437-0.728 p 0.028; 0.621 0.494-0.748 p 0.109, respectively). The PROFUND index is associated with in-hospital mortality, with a greater predictive capacity than the biomarkers studied, which would add to its long-term prognostic value in multiple pathological patients.
