Predicting 6-month mortality for older adults hospitalized with acute myocardial infarction: a cohort study

Annals of Internal Medicine Jan 13, 2020

Dodson JA, Hajduk AM, Geda M, et al. – In a prospective cohort study, researchers developed and assessed the prognostic utility of a risk model for 6-month post-acute myocardial infarction (AMI) mortality in older adults. The model incorporated information about functional impairments. Study participants included 3,006 people aged 75 years or older who were hospitalized with AMI and discharged alive. A total of 266 deaths occurred within 6 months. The researchers concluded that the model for 6-month post-AMI mortality in older adults was well calibrated and had good discriminatory capacity, and that the model may be beneficial in decision making at hospital discharge.
