Abstract
Sex-based differences have increasingly been acknowledged in the manifestation and presentation of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The History, Electrocardiogram, Age, Risk Factors, (HEAR) and Troponin (HEART) cardiac risk stratification score is the only widely-used cardiac risk stratification score that does not include sex. Our objective was to evaluate the incremental value of sex in addition to the HEAR score and high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) for the prediction of 30-day and 1-year major adverse cardiac events (MACE).
