What are the predictors of mortality in patients with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome undergoing urgent percutaneous coronary intervention?

Population

630 sequential patients undergoing urgent percutaneous coronary intervention for non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome (unstable angina pectoris, non-ST elevation myocardial infarction, or unstable postinfarct angina)

Intervention

Urgent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)

Outcome

Mortality following PCIhard clinical

This retrospective study aimed to identify clinical and angiographic predictors of mortality in patients undergoing urgent PCI for non-ST elevation ACS.

Limitations

Cardiac troponin T was not routinely measured during the study period
