Why the study?
Do ionized calcium and phosphorus levels have prognostic value in patients with STEMI treated with primary PCI?
Do ionized calcium and phosphorus levels have prognostic value in patients with STEMI treated with primary PCI?
Baseline ionized calcium and phosphorus levels do not provide prognostic value for mortality in STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI, though iCa dynamics correlate with left ventricular systolic function.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Baseline ionized calcium and phosphorus should not inform prognosis after primary PCI in STEMI; leaves open CRP's role in short-term risk models.
