Association of CHA2DS2-VASc-HS Score with Adverse In-hospital Outcomes in Patients with Non-ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Background: Early detection of patients with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) who would suffer from adverse in-hospital outcomes is important for the therapeutic decision. Recently it was described that CHA2DS2-VASc-HS and CHA2DS2-VASc score is a predictor for severity and adverse in-hospital outcomes in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) and acute coronary syndrome. The aim of our study was to assess the accuracy of the CHA2DS2-VASc-HS score predicting adverse inhospital outcomes in NSTEMI patients
