Long-term outcomes in men and women with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and incomplete reperfusion after a primary percutaneous coronary …

Background The failure of reperfusion therapy in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is more frequent than considered previously. Aim To evaluate sex-related differences in long-term outcomes in patients with STEMI and incomplete infarct-related artery reperfusion after a primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Patients and methods Of consecutive 42 752 patients with STEMI hospitalized between 2009 and 2011 in Poland, we analyzed a group of 766 (35%) women and 1453 (65%) men with less than thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow grade 3 following a primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Results In the 2-year follow-up, the mortality rate among…
Magnetic Resonance Assessment of Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction at Any Time Post-Infarction for Prediction of Subsequent Events in a Large Multic…

Background Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the most accurate imaging technique for left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) quantification, but as yet the prognostic value of LVEF assessment at any time after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) for subsequent major adverse cardiac event (MACE) prediction is uncertain. Purpose To explore the prognostic impact of MRI-derived LVEF at any time post-STEMI to predict subsequent MACE (cardiovascular death or re-admission for acute heart failure). Study Type Prospective. Population One thousand thirteen STEMI patients were included in a multicenter registry. Field Strength/Sequence 1.5-T. Balanced steady-state free precession (c…
