"SVEAT" Chest Pain Scoring System

Completed

Conditions studied: Chest Pain

In brief

This is a prospective, observational study to assess the efficacy of the newly developed SVEAT scoring system in identifying low-risk patients who may be eligible for early discharge. Various elements of clinical information including Symptoms, Vascular history, EKG, Age and Troponin values will be checked and entered on the scoring form to calculate the SVEAT risk score. Additionally, HEART score and TIMI risk score will be calculated for the same subjects. The primary aim is to assess the positive and negative predictive values for the SVEAT index for cardiovascular events and compare it to the HEART and TIMI Scores.
