Predictive accuracies of AVPU, GCS, and RASS for mortality within 24 hours of a mental status observation: Subgroup analysis based on age and surgical status

*P<0.05, **P<0.001; Area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) with whiskers indicating 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) for predicting mortality occurring within 24 hours of a mental status observation, analyzed at the observation level and stratified by patient age (below or greater than or equal to the median age of 57 years) and surgical status (patient with surgery during hospitalization or medical patient only).

Abbreviations: AUC, Area under the receiver operating characteristic curve; AVPU, Alert-Voice-Pain-Unresponsive; GCS, Glascow Coma Scale; RASS, Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale.
