  • Creatinine (mg/dL)
  • Age (years)
  • Blood pressure (mmHg)
  • Diabetes (1 = Yes, 0 = No)
  • Heart failure (1 = Yes, 0 = No)
  • Electrolyte abnormality (1 = Yes, 0 = No)
  • Atrial fibrillation (1 = Yes, 0 = No)
  • CABDEAL Score: Explanation and Clinical Context
    The CABDEAL Score is a clinical risk stratification tool designed to predict in-hospital mortality in patients with acute decompensated heart failure.
    It incorporates seven key clinical variables: Creatinine, Age, Blood pressure, Diabetes status, Heart failure history, Electrolyte abnormalities, and Atrial fibrillation.
    Each parameter is assigned points based on its contribution to risk, summing to a total CABDEAL Score that correlates with mortality risk.
    Higher scores indicate increased in-hospital mortality risk, enabling clinicians to identify high-risk patients, optimize management strategies, and allocate resources effectively.
