Comparison of Risk Scores for Predicting Adverse Outcomes in Acute Lower Gastrointestinal Bleeding
CONCLUSIONS: The Oakland and SALGIB scores outperform the other scores in predicting the requirement for blood transfusion in ALGIB patients, but no single prediction tool had the best ability across all outcomes. Novel risk stratification scores with higher performance are needed for better risk stratification in ALGIB.PMID:38550954 | PMC:PMC10978071 | DOI:10.1155/2024/3111414 (Source: Gastroenterology Research and Practice)
