Why the study?
Do sex and age affect clinical outcomes after primary percutaneous coronary intervention in STEMI patients, and how does their mortality compare to the general population?
Do sex and age affect clinical outcomes after primary percutaneous coronary intervention in STEMI patients, and how does their mortality compare to the general population?
After adjusting for baseline differences, clinical outcomes post-PPCI are similar between men and women, and long-term mortality normalizes to that of the general population after 90 days.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Supports equivalent adjusted post-PPCI outcomes by sex; leaves open residual long-term risks in STEMI survivors.
