Background: The Peruvian healthcare system is at risk during periods of increased COVID-19 contagion. Triage tools help identify patients at risk of death or complications, enabling better clinical decision-making and resource optimization. Objective: to validate the PRIEST score for predicting adverse events in hospitalized patients diagnosed with COVID-19 at Cayetano Heredia Hospital in Lima-Peru. Materials and Methods: a retrospective validation cohort study was conducted. Demographic and clinical data were collected from 336 patients hospitalized with COVID-19 between April 2020 and January 2021. The PRIEST score was calculated for each participant, and a ROC curve was constructed. The area under the curve (AUC) was calculated for the primary outcome of combined adverse events (death or ICU admission), as well as the secondary outcomes of death and ICU admission. Bivariate and multivariate analyses were performed using logistic regression of the PRIEST score variables. Results: 195 (58.0%) participants experienced the primary outcome, with 88 (26.2%) deaths and 138 (41.4%) ICU admissions. The PRIEST score did not show discriminative capacity for the primary outcome: AUC 0.556 (0.494-0.618, 95% CI). However, it did demonstrate acceptable discriminative capacity for the outcome of death: AUC 0.738 (0.682-0.793, 95% CI). Conclusions: The PRIEST score does not exhibit good discriminative capacity for the combined outcome of death or ICU admission, but it does demonstrate good discriminative capacity for the outcome of death.
