The aim of this study was to determine the long-term prognostic value of the Duke Activity Status Index-estimated metabolic equivalents (METs) values among women with suspected ischemic heart disease. At a median of 9.6 years, the incidence of death was 23.4% in those with METs <4.8 versus 8.2% in METs >9.9, P < .01. In conclusion, use of the simple, patient-reported Duke Activity Status Index could help identify higher-risk women with suspected ischemic heart disease for targeted risk management.
本研究旨在确定杜克活动状态指数(Duke Activity Status Index)估计的代谢当量(METs)值在疑似缺血性心脏病女性中的长期预后价值。在中位数为 9.6 年时,METs <4.8 的患者死亡率为 23.4%,而 METs >9.9 的患者死亡率为 8.2%,P <.01。总之,使用简单的、患者报告的杜克活动状态指数可以帮助识别出疑似缺血性心脏病的高危女性,以便进行有针对性的风险管理。
