Abstract:

Introduction: Acute STEMI is a life threatening condition with in-hospital mortality varies between 6-14%. Primary PCI had reduced the incidence of death and recurrent MI. Risk stratification is mandatory prior to intervention to identify high risk patients and optimize their therapeutic intervention. The aim was to define the high risk patients with acute STEMI undergoing primary PCI using TIMI risk score & SYNTAX score and to investigate the incidence of thirty day mortality among these patients.
