Abstract:
|
When prediction models show poor performance in new patients, one often simply redevelop new rule ignoring prior data. We compared five methods to update a model with new data. The model was developed in 1944 pts, validated+updated in 752 pts, tested in 283 pts. In updating method 1: only intercept adjusted; 2: intercept adjusted+regression coefficients multiplied with calibration slope; 3: tested if predictors were different; 4: re-estimated intercept+regression coefficients in validation set; 5: same as 4 in combined derivation+validation set. Calibration original model in validation set substantially improved by all methods. Discrimination was not improved with method 1+2. In test set all updated rules had similar discrimination. Simple recalibration methods improved model calibration similar as extensive revision methods. Discrimination was similar across all updating methods.
