Key result
SYNTAX Score II was an independent predictor for cardiac rupture in STEMI patients treated with primary PCI (OR 1.043; 95% CI 1.012-1.074; P=0.006).

SSII may aid risk stratification for cardiac rupture post-PCI in STEMI; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation.

Effect estimate: OR 1.043 (95% CI 1.012-1.074)
p-value: p=0.006
SYNTAX Score II is an independent predictor of cardiac rupture in STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI, which may help in the early detection of this highly fatal complication.
Rencüzoğulları et al. (2017) conducted an observational in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) (n=1,663). SYNTAX Score II was evaluated on Cardiac rupture (OR 1.043, 95% CI 1.012-1.074, p=0.006). SYNTAX Score II was an independent predictor for cardiac rupture in STEMI patients treated with primary PCI (OR 1.043; 95% CI 1.012-1.074; P=0.006).
