Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of different cut-off points of the score in patients with an echocardiogram performed.
Cut-off point | Sensitivity (%) | Specificity (%) | Positive predictive value (%) | Negative predictive value (%) |
---|---|---|---|---|
≥ 2 points | 100 | 35.3 | 20.2 | 100 |
≥ 3 points | 100 | 39.7 | 21.4 | 100 |
≥ 4 points | 83.3 | 80.4 | 41.1 | 96.7 |
≥ 5 points | 50.0 | 98.5 | 84.5 | 92.2 |
≥ 6 points | 16.7 | 100 | 100 | 87.9 |
Positive and negative predictive values are calculated using a population prevalence equal to the prevalence found in our registry (14.2%).
