Patients with CSFP may be repeatedly readmitted to the hospital because of chest pain or other symptoms of precordial discomfort, and there is a risk of adverse events. In order to investigate the risk factors affecting the readmission of CSFP patients, a prediction model was constructed with the aim of identifying patients at risk of readmission at an early stage and providing a reference for further clinical intervention.Methods: In this study, we collected clinical data from 397 CSFP patients between June 2021 and January 2023 in Xinjiang Medical University Hospital. Telephone follow-up clarified whether the patients were readmitted to the hospital. A predictive model for readmission of CSFP patients was constructed using multifactorial logistic regression. Nomogram was used to visualize the model and bootstrap was used to internally validate the model. ROC, DCA and Calibration curve were plotted to evaluate the calibration and discriminative ability of the column line graphs, respectively. Calibration and resolution of the column line graphs, respectively.Results: A total of 34 of 397 CSFP patients experienced readmission. Smoking history, creatine kinase isoenzyme-MB, total cholesterol, and left ventricular ejection fraction were the predictors of readmission in patients with CSFP. The area under the curve of the Nomogram model was 0.87, which indicated that the model had good predictive ability and differentiation, and the DCA and Calibration curves also indicated that the model had good consistency and was clinically useful.Conclusion: A readmission prediction model for patients with CSFP may facilitate early identification of patients at potential risk for readmission and timely interventional therapy to improve patient prognosis.Keywords: coronary slow flow phenomenon, readmission, predictive model
