phosphokinase levels to a life-threatening disorder characterized by severe acute kidney injury requiring hemodialysis or continuous renal replacement therapy (RRT).
OBJECTIVE To develop a risk prediction tool to identify patients at greatest risk of RRT or in-hospital mortality. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Retrospective cohort study of 2371 patients admitted between January 1, 2000, and March 31, 2011, to 2 large teaching hospitals in Boston, Massachusetts, with creatine phosphokinase levels in excess of 5000 U/L within 3 days of admission. The derivation cohort consisted of 1397 patients from Massachusetts General Hospital, and the validation cohort comprised 974 patients from Brigham and Womens Hospital. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES The composite of RRT or in-hospital mortality. RESULTS The causes and outcomes of rhabdomyolysis were similar between the derivation and validation cohorts. In total, the composite outcome occurred in 19.0% of patients (8.0% required RRT and 14.1% died during hospitalization). The highest rates of the composite outcome were from compartment syndrome (41.2%), sepsis (39.3%), and following cardiac arrest (58.5%). The lowest rates were from myositis (1.7%), exercise (3.2%), and seizures (6.0%). The independent predictors of the composite outcome were age, female sex, cause of rhabdomyolysis, and values of initial creatinine, creatine phosphokinase, phosphate, calcium, and bicarbonate. We developed a risk-prediction score from these variables in the derivation cohort and subsequently applied it in the validation cohort. The C statistic for the prediction model was 0.82 (95% CI, 0.80-0.85) in the derivation cohort and 0.83 (0.80-0.86) in the validation cohort. The Hosmer-Lemeshow P values were .14 and .28, respectively. In the validation cohort, among the patients with the lowest risk score (<5), 2.3% died or needed RRT. Among the patients with the highest risk score (>10), 61.2% died or needed RRT. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Outcomes from rhabdomyolysis vary widely depending on the clinical context. The risk of RRT or in-hospital mortality in patients with rhabdomyolysis can be estimated using commonly available demographic, clinical, and laboratory variables on admission.

habdomyolysis is characterized by muscle injury leading to the release of intracellular muscle contents into the systemic circulation. Because muscle injury from any cause can lead to rhabdomyolysis, the causes are numerous and include trauma or muscle compression as well as nontraumatic causes.1 The outcomes following rhabdomyolysis are similarly variable, ranging from asymptomatic elevations of creatine phosphokinase (CPK) concentration to lifethreatening electrolyte abnormalities and acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring hemodialysis or continuous renal replacement therapy (RRT). Acute kidney injury is a feared and common complication of rhabdomyolysis, occurring in 13% to 50% of patients,2,3 with reported mortality rates as high as 59% in critically ill patients.4 Currently, clinicians lack tools to predict adverse outcomes in patients with rhabdomyolysis. The degree of CPK elevation is often used clinically as a marker of disease severity but has been reported to have a weak correlation with risk.1 The ability to identify patients early in the course of rhabdomyolysis who are likely to have adverse clinical outcomes would be useful for risk stratification in the emergency department, early institution of aggressive prophylactic measures, and communication with patients and families about prognosis. In this study, we used clinical and laboratory data from 2 large hospitals to derive and validate a risk prediction equation to estimate the chance of RRT or death in patients with rhabdomyolysis.
by reviewing ICD-9-CM codes (410.x), DRG codes, and medical record review of selected cases. For those patients with multiple admissions during the study period, we included the first admission only.
Statistical Analysis
Categorical covariates were described by frequency distribution, while continuous covariates were expressed in terms of their mean (SD) or median and interquartile range as appropriate. Unadjusted associations between the covariates and the primary outcome were evaluated using 2 tests for categorical data, while for continuous data, the t test was used for normally distributed variables and the Kruskal-Wallis test for nonparametric data. Unadjusted restricted cubic spline analysis was performed to explore the reported nonlinear relationship between initial CPK and risk of the composite outcome. Adjusted odds ratios were estimated by multivariable logistic regression. We used the MGH cohort to derive a risk prediction score and then externally validated the score in the BWH cohort. We chose MGH as the derivation cohort because complete data were available in 98.9% of patients (16 were missing calcium and/or phosphate values) compared with 69.3% of patients in the BWH cohort, due primarily to missing phosphate values in the latter (299 [30.7%] with missing phosphate values, of whom 4 were also missing calcium values). Phosphate values were more likely to be missing in the BWH cohort than in the MGH cohort because of differences in ordering laboratory tests between the 2 hospitals. At BWH, in contrast to MGH, a standard chemistry panel includes calcium but not phosphate, whereas at MGH, calcium and phosphate are typically ordered together with the standard chemistry panel. We excluded those with missing values from the derivation cohort and assumed normal values for missing laboratory values in the validation cohort. We first selected clinically plausible variables that were potentially associated with the composite outcome of RRT or in-hospital mortality. Those variables associjamainternalmedicine.com
Methods
Data Collection
We obtained data from 2 teaching hospitals in the northeastern United States (Brigham and Womens Hospital [BWH] and Massachusetts General Hospital [MGH]) on patients admitted between January 1, 2000, and March 31, 2011, through the Partners Healthcare System Research Patient Data Registry, a centralized clinical data warehouse designed for research and quality improvement purposes that has been accessed for clinical studies.5,6 We obtained information on patient demographics (age, sex, and race), length of stay, vital status at hospital discharge, billing codes (International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification [ICD-9-CM]; Current Procedural Terminology [CPT]; and diagnosis-related group [DRG]), electronic discharge summaries, and inpatient laboratory values, including CPK, creatinine, phosphate, calcium, potassium, albumin, bicarbonate, white blood cell count, hemoglobin, and platelet count. Approval for this study was granted by the institutional review board at Partners, and the need for informed consent was waived.
Study Population
The inclusion criteria were age older than 18 years and CPK levels in excess of 5000 U/L within 72 hours of admission. We excluded patients with preexisting end-stage renal disease and those transferred from an outside facility who were receiving RRT for at least 24 hours. We also excluded 539 patients with CPK elevation considered due to acute myocardial infarction

ated with the composite outcome in bivariable analyses were then subjected to a backward stepwise logistic regression procedure based on a Wald 2 P value of more than .05. The final variables included in the model were age; sex; quintiles of initial phosphate, calcium, creatinine, and bicarbonate; CPK levels in excess of 40 000; and cause of rhabdomyolysis (seizure, syncope, statins, myositis, or exercise vs other causes). We selected the first available result for each laboratory variable for analysis. For each variable, quintiles with coefficients that were not significantly different were grouped for the final logistic regression model. We then divided the coefficients for each category by the smallest value of a coefficient in the model to allocate an integer or half integer score for each variable. We generated a score for each individual based on the sum of the scores for every variable; this score was incorporated into a final model. We assessed the models discrimination using the C statistic and calibration with the Hosmer-Lemeshow (H-L) goodness-of-fit test using deciles. Confidence intervals (95%) were calculated using a nonparametric bootstrap method. We validated the final multivariable logistic regression model in the BWH cohort. Because of the large number of missing phosphate values in the validation cohort, we performed a sensitivity analysis to determine whether the model performed equally well in patients who did and did not have complete data.
lignant syndrome (36.4%), abdominal or thoracic surgery (27.4%), and following cardiac arrest (58.5%). The lowest rates of the primary outcome were from myositis (1.7%), exercise (3.2%), and seizures (6.0%) (Figure 1). When stratified by cause of rhabdomyolysis, the rates of the primary outcome were similar in the MGH and BWH cohorts (Table 1).
Results
Between January 1, 2000, and March 31, 2011, we identified 3501 hospitalizations of adults with a CPK level in excess of 5000 U/L. After excluding 58 patients with end-stage renal disease or RRT on transfer from an outside institution, 74 multiple admissions, 459 with CPK elevation more than 3 days after admission, and 539 admitted with an acute myocardial infraction, the final study population included 2371 patients (1397 from MGH and 974 from BWH). Mean (SD) age was 50.7 (19.2) years, and 73.8% were male (Table 1). Review of administrative codes and electronic discharge summaries identified medical conditions as the clinical setting for rhabdomyolysis in 47.1% of patients compared with 52.9% for surgical settings. The clinical conditions most frequently associated with rhabdomyolysis were trauma (26.3%), immobilization (18.1%), sepsis (9.9%), and vascular and cardiac operations (8.1% and 5.9%, respectively). Other causes are shown in Table 1.

tals, we have derived and externally validated a simple risk prediction score to estimate the risk of RRT or in-hospital mortality. The risk score has several important attributes for clinical utility. It is easily calculated with readily available clinical, demographic, and laboratory values; has good discrimination (ie, accuracy) and calibration (ie, accuracy across a range of predicted probabilities); and provides estimates of hard clinical end points of importance to clinicians caring for patients

Compared with other risk prediction scores in nephrology and critical carefor example, prediction of the risk of RRT after cardiac surgery (C statistic, 0.78-0.81),8 prediction of contrast nephropathy following cardiac catheterization (C statistic, 0.67),9 and prediction of mortality using the admission Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score in the intensive c are unit (C statistic, 0.67-0.90)10-12the rhabdomyolysis risk score has comparable or better discrimination. We chose to develop a tool to predict the composite outcome of RRT or in-hospital mortality because of considerations of clinical relevance: a score that predicted just mortality would not provide information on RRT,

an important, common, costly, and morbid complication of rhabdomyolysis, and a score that predicted just RRT would be limited since death may be a competing outcome. In post hoc analyses, the risk score had reasonable discrimination for the 2 individual components of the composite outcome (AUC = 0.83 and H-L P = .36 for RRT; AUC = 0.80 and H-L P < .001 for inhospital mortality). A key finding from our analyses relates to the nature of the relationship between CPK levels and risk. Previous smaller studies of rhabdomyolysis have shown that CPK has a weak relationship with the risk of RRT.2,13,14 However, other groups have documented large rises in CPK after vigorous exercise with no deleterious consequences,15,16 and there is evidence of a genetic component to the variability in CPK levels following injury.17-19 We found an association between elevated initial CPK levels in excess of 40 000 U/L and the risk of RRT or inhospital mortality, but admission CPK levels alone were not sufficiently predictive to enable clinical decision making. The incorporation of cause of rhabdomyolysis provides important additional prognostic information, as suggested by previous smaller studies.2,20 The risk of the composite outcome in the overall cohort with low-risk causes (seizures, syncope, exercise, statins, or myositis) was only 5.1% compared with 21.1% in those with other causes. The components of the risk score also include age, sex, and clinical laboratory values. All laboratory variables are plausible as risk factors: high creatinine reflects AKI or CKD, which are both strong and independent risk factors for poor outcomes; high phosphate values may signify greater severity of muscle injury and impaired renal function; and low calcium results from deposition within damaged skeletal muscle and may be a marker of increased muscle injury.21 The risk score may be particularly useful in the emergency department to evaluate and triage patients with exertional rhabdomyolysis. For example, a 30-year-old female patient with myalgia following exercise with a CPK level of 20 000 U/L but normal laboratory values for calcium, phosphate, creatinine, and bicarbonate has a risk score of 1, corresponding

to less than a 1% risk of RRT or in-hospital mortality. Knowledge of the predicted risk of adverse outcomes may lead clinicians to choose intravenous fluid administration in the emergency department followed by discharge with plans for repeated outpatient laboratories rather than inpatient hospitalization for observation. The safety of this approach and clinical implementation of the risk score in this manner would require additional study. The risk score has particular utility in identifying low-risk patients. Although the documentation of a high risk score may not directly influence treatment decisions, it may be useful in conveying prognosis and expectations to the care team, patient, and family members. Clinical trials of therapeutic agents for rhabdomyolysis may also be aided by the use of a risk score as inclusion and exclusion criteria. Low-risk patients, in whom the event rate may be too low to warrant inclusion, and high-risk patients, for whom interventions may not carry clinical benefit due to severity of illness, may be excluded to optimize study design. This study has a number of important strengths. To our knowledge, it is the largest study to date of rhabdomyolysis and, more important, has identified patients on the basis of CPK levels rather than administrative codes. Only patients with moderate to severe biochemical evidence of rhabdomyolysis were included, thus removing some of the ambiguity in previous studies in which a lower CPK cutoff for inclusion was
used. The study drew data from 2 large university teaching hospitals, allowing external validation of the risk prediction model. However, we recognize some limitations. The study was retrospective in nature; the cause of rhabdomyolysis was ascertained by medical record review and administrative codes and may not have been accurate in all cases. The timing of the insult was not certain in many cases, and patients came to the hospitals at varying intervals following injury. There was no information on urine output or the treatments that were used or their relative effectiveness in preventing the primary outcome. Creatine phosphokinase was not routinely checked in all patients seeking treatment at the hospital, and therefore a number of patients may have developed rhabdomyolysis without being diagnosed. Finally, because this study includes patients from 2 large tertiary teaching hospitals in a single city in the northeastern United States, it may not be generalizable to other nontertiary care hospitals in different geographical locations. Further validation studies may be informative. In summary, we have described the incidence, causes, and outcomes of rhabdomyolysis in a large cohort of patients seeking treatment at 2 large university hospitals during a 10-year period. From these data, we derived and validated an easyto-use risk score based on readily available parameters that can aid in estimating the probability of RRT or in-hospital mortality in patients with rhabdomyolysis.
