Key words: Acute myocardial infarction, Coronary artery disease, TIMI Risk Score, In-Hospital Mortality. Therefore, the prognostic TIMI risk score is a powerful tool for predicting hospitalized patients. Hospital in mortality 11(3%) cases was associated with hypertension and diabetes.Ĭonclusion: This study show that a significant number of patients were observed adverse outcomes associated with higher TIMI risk score for in hospital. Onset of symptoms to the arrival to emergency room for treatment was ≤4 hours 201 (54.9%) cases and >4 hours in 165(45.1%) cases. Main risk factors were hypertension 230 (62.8%) cases, diabetes 198(54.1%) cases and smoking 167 (45.6%) cases. Results: 270 (73.8%) were males and 96 (26.2%) were females with male to female ratio 2.8:1. However, TIMI risk score was similar between men and women, but there was no. Background: The Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) score is considered a method for early risk stratification in patients with unstable angina/non-ST. A proforma was filled out for the said subjects that encompasses continuous and categorical variables including age, gender, family history of coronary artery disease, smoking history, diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, onset symptoms to emergency room (whether >4 hours or ≤4 h), location of myocardial infarction, drugs given prior to angioplasty, success of angiography, culprit vessel, number of diseased vessels, and in-hospital outcomes. At30days, there was no significant difference in the odds of the composite. Methods: Three hundred and sixty six acute STEMI patients who admitted through emergency and underwent primary angioplasty were enrolled. Ruth KM Pfau, Civil Hospital Karachi from 1 st October 2017 to 31 st March 2019. TIMI risk stratification score is safe and easy to use for rapid assessment of mortality and MI risk, despite its low possibility of predicting the outcome. Place and duration of study: Catheterization Laboratory of Cardiology Unit, Dr. Syed Dilbahar Ali Shah, Arshad Ali Shah, Afzal Qasim, Muhammad Sami Khan, Faisal Ahmed, Adnan WahidĪim: To determine the association between TIMI risk score and in-hospital mortality and adverse events in acute STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI at a tertiary cardiac care facility.
