Predictive risk is calculated for any type of patient from any age category. 38,39 The risk for patients without prior heart failure or a history of MI is 0.3%. 7 Predicted 1-year survival rates in patients not on heart failure drugs, rate control, or ACEI/ARB, BB, or biventricular pacing, respectively, are 95%, 93%, 92%, 90%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 98%, and 87%. The Survival Model predicted that 0.2% of the population has at least a low-risk score. 38 Even among the low-risk group, age is a predictor of poor survival, and low-risk patients tend to have a shorter expected lifespan than the general population. In addition, low-risk patients without ischemic heart disease or HF history have a predicted survival of 96% after 5 years, whereas patients with HF have a predicted survival of 75% after 5 years, and patients with ischemic heart disease have a predicted survival of 92% after 5 years. 40
