Comparative StudyComparison of long-term prognostic value of baseline SYNTAX and clinical SYNTAX scores in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients with multivessel disease.
The prognostic value of baseline SYNTAX (SS) and clinical SYNTAX (cSS) scores has been shown in different populations with coronary artery disease. However, their prognostic value has not been compared in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and multivessel disease. ⋯ SS and cSS scores have prognostic value in STEMI patients with multivessel disease treated with CABG surgery. cSS may be superior to SS for prediction of long-term adverse events in CABG patients.
