OBJECTIVES: To systematically review the risk of bias and applicability of published prediction models for risk of central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLA-BSI) in hospitalized patients. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING: Systematic review of literature in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science Core Collection, and Scopus up to July 10, 2023. Two authors independently appraised risk models using CHecklist for critical Appraisal and data extraction for systematic Reviews of prediction Modelling Studies (CHARMS) and assessed their risk of bias and applicability using Prediction model Risk Of Bias ASsessment Tool (PROBAST). RESULTS: Sixteen studies were included, describing 37 models. When studies presented multiple algorithms, we focused on the model that was selected as the best by the study authors. Eventually we appraised 19 models, among which 15 were regression models and four machine learning models. All models were at a high risk of bias, primarily due to inappropriate proxy outcomes, predictors that are unavailable at prediction time in clinical practice, inadequate sample size, negligence of missing data, lack of model validation, and absence of calibration assessment. 18 out of 19 models had a high concern for applicability, one model had unclear concern for applicability due to incomplete reporting. CONCLUSION: We did not identify a prediction model of potential clinical use. There is a pressing need to develop an applicable model for CLA-BSI.
