Calculation of cumulative risk score

Risk scoreVariable
*The contribution of the continuous variable SDANN to the cumulative risk score is the product of SDANN (ms) and the individual risk score ( –0.03 at 30 days, –0.02 at 12 months).
30 days (cut off = 3.75)
    +3.44Scored for troponin T >0.1 μg/l on admission or at 12 hours
    +2.25Scored for ≥1 episode ST elevation on Holter
    +2.69Scored for ≥1 episode of pain >12 hours after admission
    –0.03SDANN*
12 months (cut off = 2.5)
    +1.89Scored for troponin T >0.1 μg/l on admission or at 12 hours
    +1.69Scored for T wave inversion present on admission ECG
    +1.44Scored for ≥1 episode ST elevation on Holter
    +1.17Scored for ≥1 episode ST depression on Holter
