SHOCKED Score (Post-ICD Survival) Calculator
- SHOCKED Score: Explanation and Clinical Context
The SHOCKED Score is a clinical tool developed to predict long-term survival in patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs). It incorporates several clinical variables to stratify patients into different risk categories. A higher score indicates a higher risk of mortality, guiding clinicians in decision-making regarding device therapy and management strategies.
