External validation of the CRAX2MACE model.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) myocardial perfusion is frequently used to predict risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). We performed an external validation of the CRAX2MACE score, developed to estimate 2-year risk of MACE in patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD).

Methods

Patients who underwent clinically indicated SPECT with available follow-up for MACE were included (N = 2,985). The prediction performance for MACE (revascularization, myocardial infarction, or death) within 2 years for CRAX2MACE was compared with stress and ischemic total perfusion deficit (TPD) using area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Calibration was assessed with calibration plots, Brier score, and the Hosmer-Lemeshow t
