Figure 2 Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis: Ability of the Braden Scale to predict injury severity. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) for predicting injury severity was 0.896 (0.840, 0.953). The cut-off value of the Braden Scale was 17 based on the Youden index, with a sensitivity of 81.08% (64.29%, 91.44%) and specificity of 82.93% (74.85%, 88.89%). The ROC curve analysis was conducted with MedCalc software (MedCalc, MedCalc Software Ltd).
