Abstract

Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) is a minimally invasive procedure to unblock the arteries which carry blood to the heart. This procedure is carried out once patients are accepted based on the STEMI criteria upon the assessment of 12-lead ECG. This paper reports the analyses of a dataset compiled from patients accepted for PPCI. The primary objective was to explore the features which may predict 30days mortality. The 30 day mortality was?? The main features identified were a patient's age, sex, door to balloon time, call time, pain time, and activation status. Together these features appear to be a predictor of 30day mortality in patients referred for PPCI (76% accuracy, 70% sensitivity and 85% specificity).
