Key result
In patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI, the SBP/LVEDP ratio correlated best with peak troponin (r=-0.41), while LVEDP correlated best with ejection fraction (r=-0.40).
Why the study?
Do invasive hemodynamic parameters measured during primary PCI correlate with infarct size and in-hospital mortality in patients with STEMI?

Do invasive hemodynamic parameters measured during primary PCI correlate with infarct size and in-hospital mortality in patients with STEMI?
Measurement of LVEDP and SBP during primary PCI for STEMI can help risk stratify patients, as these parameters correlate with infarct size and in-hospital mortality.
Goins et al. (2018) conducted an observational in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) (n=405). Invasive hemodynamic parameters (LVEDP, SBP, PP, SBP/LVEDP ratio) was evaluated on Size of infarction estimated by peak troponin I level and ejection fraction. In patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI, the SBP/LVEDP ratio correlated best with peak troponin (r=-0.41), while LVEDP correlated best with ejection fraction (r=-0.40).
