Abstract
Malignancy-associated HPS, CCI ⥠2, age > 50 years, and Medicare patients were associated with a worse in-hospital mortality. In multivariate analysis, greater comorbidity burden appeared to be the single most important predictor of mortality. This suggests that outcomes for adults with HPS are predicated by the extent of organ dysfunction at diagnosis.
