Validation of the PADIT (prevention of arrhythmia device infection trial) risk score for infection and infection subtypes
The PADIT score was independently validated with discrimination and calibration similar to the original derivation cohort. Importantly, prior procedures predicted pocket but not systemic infection. Overall, PADIT performed well in predicting both subtypes, with the strongest model fit observed for systemic infection.
