Fifteen-Year Mortality and Cardiac, Thrombotic, and Bleeding Events in Survivors of ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Abstract
Background
Although short-term mortality in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has improved, data is limited regarding very long-term mortality and concomitant clinical events in STEMI survivors who undergo primary percutaneous coronary intervention (p-PCI). This study aimed to evaluate these parameters at 15 years and to determine the predictors of 15-year mortality in these patients.
