Article Synopsis
- Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) pose significant challenges globally, and they can lead to out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), which has low survival rates despite medical advancements.
- This study developed the FACTOR score—a tool to predict in-hospital mortality for OHCA patients undergoing coronary angiography, based on admission variables like age, downtime, first detected rhythm, and epinephrine administration.
- The FACTOR score showed strong predictive accuracy, with an area under the curve of 0.823 in the derivation cohort and 0.828 in the validation cohort, potentially aiding healthcare providers in better managing resources and patient care.
