Background This study aims to develop PADjadjaran Mortality in Acute coronary syndrome (PADMA) Score to predict in-hospital mortality in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients based on clinical examination only. Additionally, we also compared the predictive value of the PADMA Score with the Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events (GRACE), Canada Acute Coronary Syndrome (C-ACS), and The Portuguese Registry of Acute Coronary Syndromes (ProACS) risk scores.

Remote cardiac monitoring collects information from patients’ implantable rhythm management devices and directly transmits data to a physician’s office, saving both the patient and clinic time and cost. This allows the medical team to review the results promptly and eliminates the need for a patient to be physically present. The benefits of remote patient monitoring are vital to the success of a cardiac clinic, The post Remote Patient Cardiac Monitoring Cost – from Expense to Investment appeared
