External validation of the HEART, HEAR, and HET scores for prediction of major adverse cardiac events in adult patients with acute chest pain
The abridged scores fell short of their results in derivation studies, identifying only very few low-risk patients, and showing inferior model performance compared with the original HEART score. Instead of developing new scores, existing scores should be recalibrated to local population characteristics, as needed.
