Why the study?
Is coronary multivessel disease in acute myocardial infarction patients still associated with worse clinical outcomes at 1-year compared to single-vessel disease?
Is coronary multivessel disease in acute myocardial infarction patients still associated with worse clinical outcomes at 1-year compared to single-vessel disease?
In the modern era of reperfusion and secondary prevention, multivessel disease in STEMI patients is no longer associated with worse 1-year clinical outcomes compared to single-vessel disease.
MVD not linked to worse 1-year STEMI outcomes; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective confirmation before changing risk models.
MVD still represents an important proportion of STEMI patients but their prognoses were not associated with worse clinical outcomes at 1-year compared with one-VD patients in a modern reperfusion area and secondary medication prevention.
