Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the feasibility of discharging low-risk STEMI patients early after successful primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) using the Zwolle risk score (ZRS).
- Out of 183 participants, 132 were identified as low-risk, and those discharged within 72 hours showed no major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) over 30 days, while also having shorter hospital stays.
- The findings suggest that early discharge for low-risk STEMI patients post-PPCI is potentially safe, but more extensive studies are needed to confirm these results.
