Abstract
Introduction: Atherosclerosis is a inammatory disease of arterial wall which have multifactorial causes. So study was done to investigate the role of neutrophil lymphocyte ratio in prediction of in hospital adverse events in ST elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients thrombolysed with streptokinase (SK). Material and methods: The study consisted observational retrospective longitudinal study. In this 70 patients [47 (67.1%) men, 23(32.8%) women, mean age 53.6 ± 11.16 years], diagnosed case of acute ST elevation MI. Patints were devided in two group according to NLR (High NLR and Low NLR) detected by CBC. Result: A Total of 42 cases developed complications; in high NLR groups had higher rate of complications like Arrhythmia 6(60%), cardiogenic shock 12(80%), heart failure 10(77%), Post MI Angina 2 (50%) in hospital than those in low NLR group. Conclusion: Our ndings reveal that N/L ratio, a simple marker which can be derived from a routine complete blood count test was signicantly and independently related to prognosis of Acute myocardial infarction.
