Why the study?

Timely and accurate risk stratification for MACE in acute chest pain remains challenging with suboptimal existing scores, prompting evaluation of the new SVEAT score against the HEART score.

Does the SVEAT score improve risk stratification compared to the HEART score in chest pain patients with low suspicion for acute coronary syndrome?

Population

Chest pain patients with low suspicion for acute coronary syndrome admitted for overnight observation

Comparison

SVEAT score vs HEART score

Design

Blinded observational comparative study

Follow-up

30 days

Overview

May aid acute chest pain triage; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation before practice change.

Structured PICO

Does the SVEAT score improve risk stratification compared to the HEART score in chest pain patients with low suspicion for acute coronary syndrome?

P
Population
Chest pain patients with low suspicion for acute coronary syndrome admitted for overnight observation (low to intermediate risk)
I
Intervention
SVEAT (Symptoms, history of Vascular disease, Electrocardiography, Age, and Troponin) score
C
Comparator
HEART (History, Electrocardiography, Age, Risk factors and Troponin) score
O
Outcome
30-day combined endpoint of death, acute myocardial infarction or confirmed coronary artery disease requiring revascularization or medical therapy (30-d MACE)composite

The SVEAT score may offer superior risk stratification compared to the widely used HEART score for patients presenting with low-to-intermediate risk acute chest pain.
