Key result
In patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction treated by primary PCI, overall mortality was 20% at a mean follow-up of 51 months, with risk increasing with age, shock, prior MI, and multivessel disease.

Supports risk stratification by age, shock, prior MI, and multivessel disease after primary PCI for STEMI; leaves open whether targeted interventions improve outcomes.
Cohort (n=1,009)
No
Primary PCI for STEMI provides satisfactory long-term outcomes, with mortality risk progressively increasing with high-risk features such as older age, cardiogenic shock, prior MI, and multivessel disease.
Guido Parodi (2005) conducted a cohort in Acute ST elevation myocardial infarction (n=1,009). Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was evaluated on Overall mortality. In patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction treated by primary PCI, overall mortality was 20% at a mean follow-up of 51 months, with risk increasing with age, shock, prior MI, and multivessel disease.
