60-day major adverse cardiac events in emergency department patients with non-low modified HEART scores.
Mark DG, Huang J, Kennedy CJ, Vinson DR, Ballard DW, Reed ME; Kaiser Permanente CREST Network Investigators. Mark DG, et al. Among authors: ballard dw. Am J Emerg Med. 2020 Dec;38(12):2760.e5-2760.e8. doi: 10.1016/j.ajem.2020.05.081. Epub 2020 May 28. Am J Emerg Med. 2020. PMID: 32518023
BACKGROUND: A low (0-3) History, Electrocardiogram, Age, Risk factors and Troponin (HEART) score reliably identifies ED chest pain patients who are low risk for near-term major adverse cardiac events (MACE). To optimize sensitivity, many clinicians employ a modified HEART …
