Redin-SCORE: Explanation and Clinical Context Redin-SCORE is a validated tool designed to predict 1-year risk of heart failure hospitalization or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic heart failure.
It incorporates key clinical and laboratory parameters including age, NYHA class, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), previous heart failure hospitalization, B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), and serum creatinine.
The total score stratifies patients into low, intermediate, or high risk, assisting clinicians in prognostication, tailoring therapy intensity, and guiding follow-up frequency.
