Novel conduction-repolarization indices for the stratification of arrhythmic risk
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) affects approximately 800,000 individuals per annum globally. It is most frequently due to cardiac tachy-arrhythmias, which include mono-morphic or polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT), torsade de pointes and ventricular fibrillation (VF). Risk stratification for SCD remains a challenging problem in clinical practice. Patients with structural heart disease or card...
متن کاملThe external validation of the EuroSCORE II risk stratification model.
We read with great interest the article by Chalmers et al. [1] regarding external validation of the EuroSCORE II performances. Since the EuroSCORE (European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation) was introduced in daily cardiac surgical practice [2], it has been used as a measure of operative risk of adult cardiac surgery patients in more than 1300 formal citations in the medical literat...
متن کاملDelirium risk stratification in consecutive unselected admissions to acute medicine: validation of externally derived risk scores
BACKGROUND reliable delirium risk stratification will aid recognition, anticipation and prevention and will facilitate targeting of resources in clinical practice as well as identification of at-risk patients for research. Delirium risk scores have been derived for acute medicine, but none has been prospectively validated in external cohorts. We therefore aimed to determine the reliability of e...

متن کاملValidation of proposed risk stratification system for in‐hospital cardiac complications in patients with takotsubo syndrome
We read with great interest a position statement on takotsubo syndrome (TS) by Lyon et al. in a recent issue of the journal. They propose the newly risk stratification system for in-hospital cardiac complications in patients with TS. However, it is based on expert opinions, and there is no validation in the clinical setting. We validated the risk stratification system in our TS database (n = 15...
