Does the Aortic Dissection Detection (ADD) risk score accurately identify acute aortic dissection at initial presentation?
The Aortic Dissection Detection (ADD) risk score is a highly sensitive tool for identifying acute aortic dissection at initial presentation.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Supports ADD risk score in emergency triage; leaves open need for prospective outcome validation.
The clinical risk markers proposed in the 2010 thoracic aortic disease guidelines and their application as part of the ADD risk score comprise a highly sensitive clinical tool for the detection of acute aortic dissection.
