Description
Ou Zhang and co-authors build in 2025 a simple scoring chart to flag heart attack patients likely to develop heart failure while still in hospital. Those who do face a higher risk of death. The team drew on a national Chinese project that tracked heart care from 2014 to 2019, covering nearly seventy-five thousand patients admitted within a day of symptoms, none with failure on arrival.
Six factors made the final chart: age, heart rate, and past atrial fibrillation, lung disease, heart failure, and kidney disease. The chart's accuracy was modest but steady between the group used to build it and a held-out group. Its predicted risks lined up well with what actually happened. The authors offer the chart as a bedside aid for spotting high-risk patients early, so care teams can watch and treat them more closely.
