Development and validation of a prognostic nomogram for myocardial infarction patients in intensive care units: a retrospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

We aimed to develop and validate a prognostic nomogram and evaluate the discrimination of the nomogram model in order to improve the prediction of 30-day survival of critically ill myocardial infarction (MI) patients.

Design

A retrospective cohort study.

Setting

Data were collected from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC)-III database, consisting of critically ill participants between 2001 and 2012 in the USA.

Participants

A total of 2031 adult critically ill patients with MI were enrolled from the MIMIC-III database.

Primary and secondary outcome

Thirty-day survival.

Results

Independent prognostic factors, including age, heart rate, white blood cell count, blood urea nitrogen and bicarbonate, were identified by Cox
