Table 2 Outcomes of the integrated 2 step, 3-tiered risk stratification model for predicting the 30-day and 90-day urgent care and mortality events, summated as “Any event”. Analysis is by binary logistic regression. Odds ratios (95% CI) show either unadjusted or adjusted for demographic variables * (Table 1). Post hoc 2 group comparison for GP Concern vs No concern is also given
