Bleeding risk prediction after acute myocardial infarction-integrating cancer data: the updated PRECISE-DAPT cancer score.

ABSTRACT:

Background and aims

This study assessed the impact of incorporating cancer as a predictor on performance of the PRECISE-DAPT score.

Methods

A nationally linked cohort of ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients between 1 January 2005 and 31 March 2019 was derived from the UK Myocardial Ischaemia National Audit Project and the UK Hospital Episode Statistics Admitted Patient Care registries. The primary outcome was major bleeding at 1 year. A new modified score was generated by adding cancer as a binary variable to the PRECISE-DAPT score using a Cox regression model and compared its performance to the original PRECISE-DAPT score.

Results

A total of 216 709 ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients were included, of which 4569 had cancer. The original score showed m
