The CHA2DS2-VASC Score Predicts Mortality in Patients Undergoing Coronary Angiography

Background: The CHA2DS2-VASC score is used to predict the risk of thromboembolic complications in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). We hypothesized that the CHA2DS2-VASC score can be used to predict mortality in patients undergoing coronary angiography. Methods and Results: This was a prospect...

Zusammenfassung:Background: The CHA2DS2-VASC score is used to predict the risk of thromboembolic complications in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). We hypothesized that the CHA2DS2-VASC score can be used to predict mortality in patients undergoing coronary angiography. Methods and Results: This was a prospective study of 990 patients undergoing coronary angiography. The median follow-up was 2294 days. The patients were categorized into two groups according to their CHA2DS2-VASC score: group I had scores
