Article Synopsis
- - The study explored the use of the electronic poor outcome screening (ePOS) score to predict do-not-resuscitate (DNR) orders for critically ill patients in an ICU setting in Saudi Arabia.
- - Conducted with 857 patients, the results showed that an ePOS score above 17 effectively indicated the likelihood of DNR decisions, achieving high sensitivity (87.2%) and a solid area under the curve (81.8%).
- - The findings suggest that the ePOS score can aid healthcare professionals in making informed decisions about resuscitation efforts, potentially improving patient care outcomes.
