A prospective observational cohort study of 6,279 consecutive patients admitted from the Emergency Department of Hillerød University Hospital. All triaged patients with a full biochemical screening (albumin, creatinine, CRP, haemoglobin, Lactate dehydrogenase, leukocytes, potassium, and sodium) were included. Vital status was collected from the Danish Central Office of Civil Registration. The primary endpoint was 30-day mortality. Secondary endpoints were admission to intensive care unit (ICU) and readmission. Univariate logistic regression splines were made for all eight biomarkers with cuts defined after internationally accepted reference intervals. These models were used to create a multivariate logistic regression spline including all eight biomarkers, and discriminative ability was evaluated with receiver operation characteristics and area under the curve (AUC). Ultimately predicted risks of mortality based on the biomarkers were calculated for all patients, and they were divided into four groups: Green <1%, yellow 1-10%, orange 10-25%, red >25%.
