Anesthesiology

Abstract

Risk stratification helps guide appropriate clinical care. In this issue of Anesthesiology, Greenwald et al. developed and validated a broad suite of predictive tools based on administrative claims history to provide individualized risk profiles at hospital admission. In an accompanying editorial, Glance et al. discuss the role of prediction models in healthcare and how journals can disseminate valid prediction models to clinicians. Cover illustration: A.
