[Journal article] Predicting Mortality in Patients Diagnosed with Advanced Dementia Presenting at an Acute Care Hospital: the PROgnostic Model for Advanced DEmentia (PRO-MADE)

08 May 2023

Authors: Palvinder Kaur, Palvannan Kannapiran, Sheryl Hui Xian Ng, Jermain Chu, Zhi Jun Low, Yew Yoong Ding, Woan Shin Tan, Allyn Hum

Published in: BMC Geriatrics, 23(1), 255. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12877-023-03945-8

Summary points:

  1. The development and validation of the Prognostic Model for Advanced DEMentia (PRO-MADE) is to address the lack of prognostic models developed to predict mortality among advanced dementia patients in the acute care setting.
  2. PRO-MADE is both internally and externally validated to prognosticate for 1 year mortality in patients with advanced dementia.
  3. PRO-MADE can be integrated into usual clinical practice to encourage early palliative care for patients suffering with advanced dementia.
