Impact of increased admission lipid levels on periprocedural myocardial injury following an elective percutaneous coronary intervention.

Objective: Periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) is known to be a predictor of in-hospital cardiac events and long-term adverse outcomes following a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We aimed to evaluate the correlation between preprocedural serum lipid levels and PMI in patients undergoing elective PCI.

Patients And Methods: The final study group included 195 patients (60.
