Adapted from Eagle et al⁵.

The sum of points  =  the total risk score.

*The probability of death was estimated from the nomogram plot for the midpoint of the total risk score range.

BP, blood pressure; CHF, congestive heart failure; MI, myocardial infarction; PCI, percutaneous catheter based intervention.
