Abstract

Aim: Identification of predictors of unfavorable annual prognosis in patients with acute coronary syndrome with ST-segment elevation (STEMI). Material and methods: The study included 69 patients with STEMI who were hospitalized in the period from March 2014 to January 2017 in the hospital named after Zhadkevich. The follow-up period was 12±3 months after the index STEMI Longterm prognosis was established in 62 (89.8%) patients. Results: the fatal outcome was observed in 7 (11.3%) patients. Nonfatal myocardial infarction developed in 10 (16.2%), hospitalization with heart failure decompensation - in 5 (8%), nonfatal acute cerebrovascular accident - in 3 (4.8%) patients. Predictors of adverse prognosis were: age >60 years, level of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) >29.2 pmol/l, C-reactive protein (CRP) >4.7 mg/l, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVF) 60 years and BNP level >29.2 pmol/l. Conclusion: Adverse factors affecting the long-term outcome of the disease (12±3 months after the STEMI) are: BNP level >29.2 pmol/l, CRP level >4.7 mg/l, LV FV value 60 years.
