Proposal of a novel clinical score to predict heart failure incidence in long-term survivors of acute coronary syndromes

HF remains a frequent complication following MI and adversely affects prognosis.

Description
Summary:HF remains a frequent complication following MI and adversely affects prognosis. The objective of this study was to identify predictors of HF following MI and to design a risk score for its prediction. Retrospective study of all consecutive patients admitted for MI. Primary end point was time to incident HF. Patients with previous history of HF were excluded. Death was modelled as competing risk. 5737 patients were included. Mean age was 66.32±12.80. During a median follow-up of 47.0months (23.0–73.0), 686 patients (12%) developed HF. Age, diabetes mellitus, peripheral artery disease, renal insufficiency, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, persistent atrial fibrillation, haemoglobin, troponin peak, diuretic at admission, ventricular function, and revascularization were independent predictors for HF development. According to this multivariate regression analysis, we developed a novel score that allows for the identification of patients at high (≥16), medium (9–15) and low risk (
