Short-Term Prognostic Value of the Culprit-SYNTAX Score in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction

Background: The SYNergy between Percutaneous Coronary Intervention with TAXus and Cardiac Surgery (SYNTAX) score is a scoring system that helps to decide on surgery or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients acute myocardial infarction (MI), studies are showing the prognostic value of this both AMI artery disease undergoing PCI. In syndrome (ACS) patients, infarct-related complexity lesions also important terms mortality morbidity. Our study aimed determine culprit vessel’s SYNTAX (cul-SS) presenting MI. Methods: our study, 1284 MI were analyzed retrospectively. scores cul-SS calculated. In-hospital 30-day deaths major complications accepted as primary outcomes. compared predicting Conclusions: Major observed 36 (2.8%) death 42 (3.3%) stent thrombosis 24 (1.9%) patients. area under curves for outcomes 0.64 0.68 (p = 0.026), respectively. Cul-SS was successful superior short-term complications.
