Key result
Prior AMI is linked to a ~493% increased risk of death or major cardiovascular events.
Why the study?
Does the presence of previous cardiovascular diseases worsen long-term outcomes in patients with acute myocardial infarction?
Population
160 patients who sought medical care to the outpatient clinic after acute myocardial infarction (AMI)
Design
Cohort
Follow-up
at least 1 year (maximum 2.5 years)

Prior AMI signals need for closer post-MI surveillance; extends observational prognostic data but leaves open prospective validation.
Observational (n=160)
Does the presence of previous cardiovascular diseases worsen long-term outcomes in patients with acute myocardial infarction?
Effect estimate: RR 5.93 (95% CI 2.28-15.4)
p-value: p=<0.001
Previous cardiovascular diseases, particularly prior AMI and PCI, significantly worsen long-term prognosis in patients recovering from an acute myocardial infarction.
Кутишенко et al. (2018) conducted an observational in acute myocardial infarction (n=160). Previous cardiovascular diseases was evaluated on death from any cause, recurrent cardiovascular complications (non-fatal AMI, cerebral stroke), and urgent hospitalization due to the worsening of the current CVD (RR 5.93, 95% CI 2.28-15.4, p=<0.001). Previous acute myocardial infarction significantly increased the risk of death, recurrent complications, or urgent hospitalization (RR 5.93; 95% CI 2.28-15.4; p<0.001).
