Approximately 20% of patients hospitalized with COVID-19 require intensive care and possibly invasive mechanical ventilation (MV). Patient preferences with COVID-19 for MV may be different, because intubation for these patients is often prolonged (for several weeks), is administered in settings characterized by social isolation and is associated with very high average mortality rates. Supporting patients facing this decision requires providing an accurate forecast of their likely outcomes based on their individual characteristics.
The investigators therefore aim to:
Develop 3 CPMs in each of 2 hospital systems (i.e., 6 distinct models) to predict:
i) the need for MV in patients hospitalized with COVID-19; ii) mortality in patients receiving MV; iii) length of stay in the ICU.
Evaluate the geographic and temporal transportability of these models and examine updating approaches.
Engage stakeholders to facilitate best use of these CPMs in the care of patients with COVID-19.
There has been a proliferation of COVID-19 clinical prediction models (CPMs) reported in the literature across health systems, but the validity and potential generalizability of these models to other settings is unknown. Generally, most hospitals (and systems) do not have a sufficient number of cases (and outcomes) to develop models fit to their local population, and predictor variables are not uniformly and reliably obtained across systems. Therefore, pooling and harmonizing data resources and assessing generalizability across different sites is urgently needed to create tools that may help support decision making across settings. In addition, since best practices are rapidly evolving over time (e.g., proning, minimizing paralytics, lung-protective volumes, remdesivir, dexamethasone or other treatments), updating and recalibrating these CPMs is crucially important.
In the current PCORI Methods project, the investigators developed a CPM evaluation and updating framework including both conventional and novel performance measures. The investigators will use this framework to evaluate COVID-19 prognostic models in the largest cohort of COVID-19 patients examined to date, spanning 2 datasets from very different settings. As the COVID-19 pandemic affects different regions, with subsequent waves expected, identifying the most accurate, robust and generalizable prognostic tools is needed to guide patient-centered decision making across diverse populations and settings.

| Stakeholder perceptions, beliefs and opinions on COVID prediction models | Aim 3 Outcome-The outcome will be assessed with a codebook derived deductively from our structured interview guide to identify themes that emerge in the semi-structured sessions. Through focus groups held via synchronous video conferences, we will engage with patients and clinical providers to identify patient- and provider-reported themes that emerge in how clinical prediction models can support decision making in the care of patients with COVID-19. Themes will be identified through qualitative analysis of patient and provider feedback. We expect to elicit patient and provider beliefs, opinions and values around the scientific, ethical and pragmatic aspects of use of these models to support decision making. |
