The evaluation of the CRUSADE risk score in Asian patients undergoing contemporary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for NSTEMI is necessary. Aims: We aimed to validate and update the CRUSADE score to predict in-hospital major bleeding in NSTEMI patients treated with PCI. Method: The Thai PCI registry is a large, prospective, multicenter PCI registry in Thailand enrolling patients between May 2018 and August 2019. The CRUSADE score was calculated based on 8 predictors including sex, diabetes, prior vascular disease (PVD), congestive heart failure (CHF), creatinine clearance (CrCl), hematocrit, systolic blood pressure, and heart rate (HR). The score was fitted to in-hospital major bleeding using the logistic regression. The original score was revised and updated for simplification. Results: Of 19,701 patients in the Thai PCI registry, 5976 patients presented with NSTEMI. The CRUSADE score was calculated in 5882 patients who had all variables of the score available. Thirty-five percent were female, with a median age of 65.1 years. The proportion of diabetes, PVD, and CHF was 46%, 7.9%, and 11.2%, respectively. The original and revised models of the CRUSADE risk score had C-statistics of 0.817 (95% CI: 0.762–0.871) and 0.839 (95% CI: 0.789–0.889) respectively. The simplified CRUSADE score which contained only four variables (hematocrit, CrCl, HR, and CHF), had C-statistics of 0.837 (0.787–0.886). The calibration of the recalibrated, revised, and simplified model was optimal. Conclusions: The full and simplified CRUSADE scores performed well in NSTEMI treated with PCI in Thai population.MedicineArticleSCOPUS10.1002/ccd.309402-s2.0-851824592181522726X38219275
