Platelet Indices and Intracoronary Thrombus Grade as Predictors of In-Hospital Major Cardiovascular Events in Patients with ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction Post Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Journal: International Journal Of Scientific Advances
Year: 2023

Background: The high mortality rate of ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) is caused by its complications, especially in-hospital major cardiovascular events (MACE). This study aims to determine the relationship between platelet indices and intracoronary thrombus grade as predictors of in-hospital MACE and the interaction of the combination of both predictors in patients with STEMI post-primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: This prospective cohort study was conducted
