Abstract

Objectives: The prognostic significance of SYNTAX Score II (SS-II) is well-known in patients with chronic coronary syndromes. However, its predictive ability for mortality in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (p-PCI) remains unclear. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the prognostic accuracy of SS-II in STEMI patients who underwent p-PCI.
