Clinician prediction of survival versus the Palliative Prognostic Score: Which approach is more accurate? - PubMed We found that PaP score was more accurate than CPS, and the addition of CPS to the prognostic model reduced its accuracy. This study highlights the limitations of clinical gestalt and the need to use objective prognostic factors and models for survival prediction.

PaP score performed better than clinician prediction of survival, but still low accuracy.

A: Largely, no! Similar communication, slight ⬆️ appts.
