Risk stratification of major cardiovascular events after ACS using Doppler echocardiography provides prognostic support for different clinical models and enables non-invasive risk assessment, independent of comorbidities. echoscore offers a better definition of the categories of high- and intermediate-risk patients in whom a more aggressive approach improves outcomes. 85 echocardiographic parameters are studied. A 6-month follow-up with checkpoints at one month, three months and six months, 181 patients with major cardiovascular events (death, ischemic/extension recurrence, heart failure/cardiogenic shock, severe rhythm or conduction disorder, stroke, mechanical or thromboembolic complications, rehospitalization).The echoscore comprises 4 echocardiographic variables: LV-Simpson-biplane ejection fraction, LV-surface-Simpson shortening fraction, global longitudinal M-strain and pulmonary ultrasound comets.
