Risk stratification for 1-year mortality in acute heart failure: classification and regression tree analysis.
BACKGROUND Simple tools for risk stratification of patients with acute heart failure (AHF) are an unmet clinical need, particularly regarding long-term mortality. METHODS We prospectively enrolled 610 consecutive patients presenting to the emergency department with AHF. The diagnosis of AHF was adjudicated by two independent cardiologists. The classification and regression tree (CART) analysi...
متن کاملRisk stratification for in-hospital mortality in spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage: a Classification and Regression Tree analysis.
BACKGROUND Risk stratification for mortality in intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) helps guide care, but existing clinical prediction rules are too cumbersome for clinical practice because of their complexity. AIM To develop a simple decision tree model of in-hospital mortality risk stratification for ICH patients. METHODS We collected information on spontaneous ICH patients hospitalized in a ...
متن کاملRisk Stratification for In-Hospital Mortality in Acutely Decompensated Heart FailureClassification and Regression Tree Analysis
HEART FAILURE CAUSES CONsiderable morbidity and mortality and is responsible for a tremendous burden on the health care system in the United States. It accounted for approximately 1 million hospital discharges in 2001, an increase of 164% since 1979, and is associated with an overall annual cost of nearly $29 billion. Reported in-hospital mortality ranges from as low as 2.3% among patients enro...
متن کاملUse of myeloperoxidase for risk stratification in acute heart failure.
BACKGROUND Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a biomarker of inflammation and oxidative stress produced by neutrophils, monocytes, and endothelial cells. Concentrations of MPO predict mortality in patients with chronic heart failure. This study sought to investigate the diagnostic accuracy and prognostic value of MPO in patients with acute heart failure (AHF). METHODS We prospectively enrolled 667 pati...
متن کاملAcute heart failure risk stratification: can we define low risk?
The emergency department evaluation and management of patients who have potential acute heart failure syndromes (AHFS) has remained a significant challenge for decades. The emergency physician's diagnostic tools for heart failure have remained limited, and the complexity of the syndrome itself has led to risk-averse practice styles with extremely high admission rates. Recently, new diagnostic m...
