Abstract
Polyvascular Disease, that encompasses peripheral artery disease and cerebrovascular disease, has gained prominence due to expanded clinical focus and research, primarily driven by its association with major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) like myocardial infarction, cardiovascular death, and ischemic stroke. Objective: To determine the patients of PVD in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods: A cross-sectional study was designed and conducted at Department of Cardiology, Mayo Hospital, Lahore. between August 3, 2022 and February 2, 2023. 183 patients with AMI of either gender, age above 25 years and up to 80 years were included. Data were analyzed statistically using SPSS version 25.0. Results: Our study reported PVD in 57.4% of the patients with AMI. According to the stratification of PVD with numerous variables, notable variations emerged concerning age and symptom duration (p<0.05), whereas gender, BMI, type of AMI, and socio-economic status showed insignificant differences. Conclusions: Our findings demonstrated that the PVD was highly prevalent among patients with AMI.
