ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: Aim: To determine the possibility of predicting adverse cardiovascular events based on the analysis of clinical and instrumental research methods, as well as sST2 in patients after myocardial infarction. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Materials and Methods: The study included 64 patients who suffered an acute myocardial infarction and underwent PCI with balloon angioplasty and stenting of the infarct-related vessel in the acute period. The predictors of adverse cardiovascular events were assessed events during 1 year of observation. Indicators of echocardiography and coronary angiography were assessed and concentrations sST2. RESULTS: Results: A worse prognosis was associated with intermediate ejection fraction (EF) (odds ratio (OR)=3.981, p<0.05), left aneurysm ventricle (LV) (OR=29.5, p<0.05), high concentrations of sST2 (OR=1.017, p<0.05) and scores on the Syntax scale (OR=1.001, p<0.05). CONCLUSION: Conclusions: In patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention for myocardial infarction, adverse outcome during the next 2 years is associated with coronary and echocardiographic parameters, as well as biochemical indicators of myocardial stress and fibrosis. HF patients with intermediate EF, LV aneurysm, high sST2 concentrations, and high Syntax scores have the worst prognosis.
