Does the GRACE risk score predict in-hospital and 6-month post-discharge mortality in patients with acute coronary syndrome?
This study evaluates the validity of the GRACE risk score for predicting in-hospital and 6-month mortality in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
Effect estimate: AUC 0.76 (95% CI 0.57-0.95)
p-value: p=0.014
Background The wide range of clinical presentations of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) makes it indispensible to use tools for risk stratification and for appropriate risks management; thus, the use of prognosis scores is recommended in the immediat clinical decision-making. Objective To validate the Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events (GRACE) score as a predictor of in-hospital and 6-month post-discharge mortality in a population diagnosed with ACS. Methods This is a prospective cohort study of consecutive patients diagnosed with ACS ...
Neves et al. (2021) conducted a cohort in Acute Coronary Syndrome (n=160). GRACE Risk Score was evaluated on In-hospital mortality prediction (AUC 0.76, 95% CI 0.57-0.95, p=0.014). The GRACE risk score accurately predicted in-hospital mortality (AUC 0.76) and 6-month post-discharge mortality (AUC 0.78) in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
