Mortality risk of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients shows high variability. In order to assess individual risk, several scoring systems have been developed and validated. Yet, as treatment approaches evolve with improving outcomes and as even older patients with complex disease patterns are treated invasively, new or updated risk prediction algorithms are needed to maintain or increase prognostic accuracy. One of the most relevant improvements of therapy is primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), since, compared with fibrinolysis, it further reduces mortality. Prediction algorithms may provide useful information for patients and relatives, as well as help physicians to allocate hospital resources. In addition, they may contribute to an improved quality of care as they can be used for risk adjustment in inter-organizational comparisons of health care providers with different case mixes. Furthermore, risk models may be helpful in clinical trial design identifying patients with the needed risk profile thereby increasing statistical power and reducing sample size and costs.
In the present work, we overview the general and individual characteristics and discriminative performance of the most studied and some recently constructed mortality risk models that were validated in patients with STEMI who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention.
We found that though the extensively validated “Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events” (GRACE) model was not particularly derived from data of invasively treated STEMI patients, it also performs well in the era of transradial primary PCI. Similarly, the Zwolle, “Controlled Abciximab and Device Investigation to Lower Late Angioplasty Complications”(CADILLAC), “Assessment of Pexelizumab in Acute Myocardial Infarction” (APEX-AMI), and “Age, Life support, Pressure, Heart rate, Access site” (ALPHA) models, that were constructed using primary PCI data, all seem to have comparable discriminative abilities. In contrast, the admission model “Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction” (TIMI), which was developed in the fibrinolysis era, might have less predictive power. Finally, the primary PCI admission model “Primary Angioplasty in Myocardial Infarction” (PAMI) is likely the weakest among the comparatively studied risk models concerning discriminatory ability.
