Renal impairment and mortality in patients with STEMI and cardiogenic shock/cardiac arrest.

Objectives: We sought to study the association of renal impairment (RI) with mortality in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) complicated by cardiogenic shock and/or cardiac arrest (CS/CA).

Methods: Patients with RI (estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 mL/min/1.73 m ) were identified from the Midwest STEMI consortium, a prospective registry of four large regional programs comprising consecutive patients over 17 years.

Incidence and Long-Term Outcomes of Stroke in Patients Presenting With ST-Segment Elevation-Myocardial Infarction: Insights From the Midwest STEMI Consortium.

Background Contemporary real-world data on stroke in patients presenting with ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) are scarce. Methods and Results We evaluated the incidence, trends, cause, and predictors of stroke from 2003 to 2019 in 4 large regional STEMI programs in the upper Midwest that use similar transfer and treatment protocols. We also evaluated the long-term impact of stroke on 5-year mortality.
