In STEMI patients undergoing PPCI, both bSS and rSS can predict mortality at 12 months. Every point on the rSS confers an additional 6% mortality risk. Calculation of the rSS after culprit lesion intervention may help guide management of non-culprit lesions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
