- This study examined how left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) affects outcomes for patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) due to acute coronary syndromes (ACS).
- Out of 1,410 patients studied, those with higher LVEDP had significantly higher all-cause mortality rates, indicating that LVEDP serves as an important risk indicator.
- The findings suggest that LVEDP should be considered in early risk assessments and clinical decisions for ACS patients, especially since it independently correlates with higher mortality risk.
