Alcohol use disorders (AUDs) are common among patients admitted to an intensive care unit, yet systematic screening is rarely performed. We sought to confirm the construct validity of the full Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT) and to evaluate the performance of the brief 3 item AUDIT-C using the full AUDIT as a proxy gold standard in a population of patients with a medical critical illness. Secondary Analysis The Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) Network, a consortium of 12 university centers (44 hospitals) dedicated to conducting multicenter clinical trials in patients with ARDS. Patients meeting consensus criteria for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome None Of 1,133 patients enrolled in one of three ARDS Network studies, 1,037 (92%) had full AUDIT data available. Of the included patients, 236 (23%) scored above the screening threshold for an alcohol use disorder on the full AUDIT. Construct validity analysis of the full AUDIT supported a three factor model. Compared to the full AUDIT, the AUDIT-C had an area under the receiver operating characteristic (AuROC) curve of 0.99 for men and 0.98 for women. The optimal cutoff was 4 for both genders. At this cutoff, the AUDIT-C had a sensitivity of 95% (95% CI 92%, 98%) and specificity of 94% (95% CI 92%, 96%) for men and sensitivity of 89% (95% CI 82%, 96%) and specificity of 99% (95% CI 98%, 100%) for women. Though a 3 factor structure for the AUDIT was confirmed in ICU patients with ARDS, the first 3 questions focusing on alcohol consumption provide information that is comparable to the full 10 item AUDIT screening questionnaire. This study is limited by the lack of a true gold standard and the performance of the AUDIT-C is likely overestimated due to this limitation.
