Risk of Cardiovascular Events Using the SMART Polyvascular Disease Risk Score.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Secondary Manifestations of Arterial Disease (SMART) risk score-based projection of risk for cardiovascular (CV) events can help devise risk mitigation strategies.

Objectives

The objective of the study was to analyze the use of the SMART polyvascular disease score to compute the risk for major adverse CV events (MACE) in U.S.

Patients

Methods

We accessed the Baylor Scott & White EPIC informatics and data warehouse to identify patients at their first outpatient cardiology evaluation between April 2014 and October 2023 to estimate up to 10-year risk of MACE, a composite of all-cause death, ischemic stroke, and nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI). Cox regression, accelerated failure time model, and survival analyses were used to develop and validate th
