The ACE Equation Gives Equivalent Mortality Risk Estimates to the Duke Treadmill Score and Duke Nomogram
The ACE equation produced similar survival estimates to the Duke nomogram and DTS. This equation improves precision over the DTS and ease of use over the Duke nomogram, and therefore, may serve as a valuable tool for clinicians assessing prognosis from exercise test findings.
