| *'''0-3''': 2.5% risk of adverse cardiac event. Patient's can be discharged with follow-up.
| |
| *'''4-6''': 20.3% risk of adverse cardiac event. Patients should be admitted to the hospital for trending of [[troponin]] and provocative testing.
| |
| *'''≥7''': 72.7% risk of adverse cardiac event, suggesting early invasive measures with these patients and close coordination with inpatient cardiology
