Abstract

Background: Worldwide, heart problems are the leading cause of death. Aim and objective: To research the connection between the SYNTAX score and QTc dispersion for the severity of acute STEMI-diagnosed coronary atherosclerotic artery disease. Material and methods: 55 patients are included in the current study. During the study period, all people who went to acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction in the emergency, medicine, or Cardiology OPD were assessed. Acute STEMI was identified in patients using WHO criteria. Results: The patient age varied from 49 to 70 patients were 27.3% of women and 72.7% of men, with a mean age of and standard deviations of 10.55 and 55.09, respectively. The average CKMB and Syntax scores were respectively 53.8729.64 and 11.8510.24. Forty (80%) of the individuals tested positive for troponin I, and the average syntax score was compared to QTc dispersion. Subjects with QTc dispersion 60 and >60 had mean syntax scores of 1.79 2.35 and 14.65 9.82, respectively. Using the t test, it was discovered that the syntax score was statistically significant when compared to QTc dispersion at p0.01. Amid score and QTc were found to have a notable positive connection (r = 0.698, p0.01) according to Pearson correlation analysis. Conclusions: According to the results of our investigation, corrected significant correlation exists between QT dispersion and the SYNTAX score-measured severity of coronary artery disease.
