Summary

This study will assess the incidence, effect and persistence of F-QRS (Fragmented-QRS) in STEMI (ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction) patients post-PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention). The aim is to add to the existing research field surrounding F-QRS. It is hypothesised that patients with F-QRS present on the surface ECG, following PCI, will have incurred a higher degree of damage. As a result, it is hypothesised that these patients will have reduced LV (left-ventricular) systolic function, increased incidence of regional wall motion abnormalities (RWMAs), and increased troponin levels on admission. This study will additionally look for correlations between F-QRS and culprit vessels. To our knowledge there is minimal research regarding this.
