The freeware GRACE ACS Risk program on the StatCoder.com website has been updated to include morbidity and mortality calculations for up to 6 months after a patient is hospitalized with Acute Coronary Syndrome based on the Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events, an international outcomes study. It incorporates the following variables: age; CHF; heart rate; systolic BP; serum creatinine; cardiac arrest at admission; ST-segment deviation; elevated cardiac enzymes and calculates the absolute risk of death or death/MI in the inpatient period and up to 6 months.
