Temporal Trends in the Treatment and Outcomes of Patients With Non-ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction in Poland from 2004–2010 (from the Polish Registry of Acute Coronary Syndromes)

Temporal Trends in the Treatment and Outcomes of Patients With Non-ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction in Poland from 2004–2010 (from the Polish Registry of Acute Coronary Syndromes)

The aim of this work was to analyze temporal trends in clinical presentation, treatment methods, and outcomes of patients in Poland with non–ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) from 2004 to 2010. A total of 90,153 patients with NSTEMI enrolled in the Polish Registry of Acute Coronary...

Zusammenfassung:The aim of this work was to analyze temporal trends in clinical presentation, treatment methods, and outcomes of patients in Poland with non–ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) from 2004 to 2010. A total of 90,153 patients with NSTEMI enrolled in the Polish Registry of Acute Coronary Syndromes (PL-ACS) from 2004 to 2010 were analyzed. The main outcome measure was all-cause mortality after 12 months, identified from official mortality records. The percentage of admissions for NSTEMI among all acute coronary syndromes increased from 24% in 2004 to 38% in 2010 (p
