Abstract
This prospective observational study aimed to determine the proportion of mechanical complications in patients with acute STEMI and assess the associated outcomes. The study was conducted between June’21 and May’22, including 1307 patients. Mechanical complications were evaluated using 2D-Echo. Among the STEMI patients, 17 individuals (1.3 %) experienced mechanical complications. The most prevalent complication was FWR (n = 9), followed by VSR(n = 7) and PMR (n = 1). However, despite their low incidence, mechanical complications carry a significant mortality burden. Mortality rates were higher in older age and female patients.
期刊介绍：
Indian Heart Journal (IHJ) is the official peer-reviewed open access journal of Cardiological Society of India and accepts articles for publication from across the globe. The journal aims to promote high quality research and serve as a platform for dissemination of scientific information in cardiology with particular focus on South Asia. The journal aims to publish cutting edge research in the field of clinical as well as non-clinical cardiology - including cardiovascular medicine and surgery. Some of the topics covered are Heart Failure, Coronary Artery Disease, Hypertension, Interventional Cardiology, Cardiac Surgery, Valvular Heart Disease, Pulmonary Hypertension and Infective Endocarditis. IHJ open access invites original research articles, research briefs, perspective, case reports, case vignette, cardiovascular images, cardiovascular graphics, research letters, correspondence, reader forum, and interesting photographs, for publication. IHJ open access also publishes theme-based special issues and abstracts of papers presented at the annual conference of the Cardiological Society of India.
