Palliative Care Patient Baseline Characteristics Stratified by 30-Day Mortality

9.5 KB of baseline characteristics for palliative care patients, stratified by their 30-day mortality status. The dataset was authored by Mete Ucdal and last updated on May 8, 2026. It is available under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Predicting 30-day mortality risk based on baseline patient characteristics mentioned in the description.
• Identifying key clinical or demographic factors associated with short-term mortality in palliative care.
• Developing stratification models for palliative care resource allocation and patient management.
• Benchmarking new predictive models against established baseline characteristics.

Strengths

• Dataset is small (9.5 KB), facilitating quick download and initial exploration.
• Clear focus on a specific clinical outcome (30-day mortality) for patient stratification.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for modeling tasks.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
