“…The TIMI risk score was first developed for fibrinolytic-eligible patients with STEMI, and its accuracy and clinical applicability were validated in patients with STEMI undergoing PCI ( 16 , 17 ). This score is recommended by contemporary guidelines for use in patients with STEMI, and is a simple bedside scoring tool that can effectively predict in-hospital mortality ( 18 ).…”

“…Although the ischemic risk may accrue progressively following the acute event [24], the predictive value of clinical risk scores diminishes over time [25]. There are also problems with clinical risk scores related to limited use [26], differences in their predictive value [27,28] and poor performance in patients with STEMI after PPCI [28,29]. All but one [8] of the existing risk scores have been developed in pre high-sensitivity troponin era.…”

“…Tirofiban was used before PCI in patients with a high TIMI risk score by the primary operator’s discretion (12). Since there was no recommendation of a standard dose of tirofiban for STEMI at the time of the study, tirofiban was used in doses established for PCI patients.…”
