S2I2N0–3 Score Predicts Short- and Long-Term Mortality and Morbidity in HFrEF: A Post-Hoc Analysis of the GUIDE-IT Trial

ESC Heart FailPublished Secondary analysis of the GUIDE-IT randomised trial

Authors' conclusion

The S2I2N0-3 risk score had modest predictive values for both short- and long-term clinical outcomes in HFrEF patients, offering equivalent performance to the established MAGGIC score.

CV death, long term HR
1.18 (1.02-1.38) (95% CI)
All-cause death, short term HR
1.52 (1.12-2.07) (95% CI)
All-cause death, long term HR
1.18 (1.03-1.36) (95% CI)
