A multivariable prediction model can identify HFpEF patients with a high risk (≥10% over 5 years) of sudden cardiac death, which may help select appropriate candidates for future SCD prevention trials.
May guide HFpEF patient selection for SCD prevention trials; extends risk stratification beyond HFrEF.
A multivariable prediction model identified patients with HFpEF who have a ≥10% risk of SCD over 5 years, similar to the risk of SCD in the Sudden Cardiac Death in Heart Failure (SCD-Heft) trial. This model may be useful for selecting patients with HFpEF for SCD prevention trials.
