May facilitate risk-adjusted AMI mortality comparisons; leaves open prospective validation before clinical use.
Selker et al. (1991) conducted an observational in Acute myocardial infarction / acute cardiac ischemia (n=5,773). Time-insensitive predictive instrument for mortality was evaluated on Discrimination between patients who lived and died (ROC curve area). A time-insensitive predictive instrument for acute myocardial infarction mortality accurately discriminated between patients who lived and died, with ROC curve areas ranging from 0.76 to 0.85.
