The odds of death or readmission as a function of the final systolic blood pressure obtained during a hospitalization were modeled using logistic regression. The primary outcome was death or readmission within 30-days of the index hospitalization. We adjusted the models for age, sex, race and AHRQ comorbidities and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Observations with missing values were excluded from the modeling. Analysis was done using R-Studio. R packages tidyverse, icd, nephro, ggplot2, tableone were used.
