Implication

TIMI score may aid ED chest pain stratification; confirms predictive value in undifferentiated patients but leaves open impact on outcomes or management.

Structured PICO

Does the TIMI risk score accurately predict adverse outcomes in adult patients presenting to the emergency department with undifferentiated chest pain?

Population

1,000 consecutive adult patients (age ≥20 years) presenting with potentially cardiac chest pain to a single urban teaching hospital emergency department.

Intervention

TIMI risk score calculation (including a 'front door' score without the troponin component)

Outcome
