Abstract

Objectives: To estimate risk of mortality and morbidity of STEMI patients at admission and discharge time. One objective includes comparing the lipid profile in STEMI patients and healthy subjects to establish the relation between the risk factor.

Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted from January 2013 to September 2013. We included 80 patients in the study group and 50 healthy subjects in the control group to assess the risk in STEMI patients using the dynamic TIMI risk score. Serum lipid levels were measured in these patients by (CC3300) cholesterol analyzer.

Results: The study group consists of 80 patients and 50 controls. Our results show the significant correlation of hospital events with a dynamic TIMI risk score. In addition to that we observed that highly significant HDL,LDL levels at p-value <0.0001 and Triglycerides were less significant with p-value <0.038. Dynamic TIMI risk score estimate 1-year mortality at discharge time.

Conclusion: The Dynamic TIMI risk score applied to STEMI patients, identifies a group of patients at high risk and this should be a continuous process, as over the time patients condition can change.
