Biomarkers for Risk Stratification After STEMI

Summary

Despite modern reperfusion strategies, myocardial infarction leads to deleterious processes resulting in left ventricular remodelling (LVR) and heart failure (HF). Several biomarkers i.e. galectin-3 (Gal-3) and soluble ST-2 protein are involved in LVR as a result of inflammatory processes and fibrosis. There is an evidence of a high prognostic value of both biomarkers in prediction of outcomes in HF patients. This study will further investigate the role of Gal-3 and ST-2 in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and without prior HF in prediction of unfavourable outcomes.
