Key result
Seventeen risk factors, including out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OR 5.55) and cardiogenic shock (OR 4.83), were significantly associated with mortality in adult STEMI patients after PCI.
Why the study?
There was a paucity of systematic reviews synthesizing evidence on the prevalence and associated factors of mortality among adult STEMI patients after PCI.
What is the prevalence and what are the associated risk factors for mortality in adult patients with STEMI after PCI?
Meta-Analysis (n=199,339)
What is the prevalence and what are the associated risk factors for mortality in adult patients with STEMI after PCI?
This meta-analysis identifies a 10% pooled mortality rate and 17 significant risk factors for mortality in STEMI patients following PCI, highlighting high-risk subgroups.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May inform closer monitoring of high-risk STEMI patients after PCI; confirms multiple predictors and leaves open targeted intervention trials.
Yan et al. (2023) conducted a meta-analysis in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) (n=199,339). Clinical and demographic risk factors vs. Absence of risk factors was evaluated on Mortality. Seventeen risk factors, including out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OR 5.55) and cardiogenic shock (OR 4.83), were significantly associated with mortality in adult STEMI patients after PCI.
