Background:The aim of the present study is to correlate QRS dispersion with the severity of coronary artery lesion in patients with NSTEMI detected by GENSINI score (short term outcome). Methods: The whole study group consisted of 96 (63 males and 33 females) patients presented with NSTEMI . Age ranged from 46 and 75 years with a mean of 57.4 ± 6.8. Table ( 7) summarizes baseline clinical and laboratory data of the study population. Results: We included 96 consecutive patients who were admitted to our Cardiology Care Unit for NSTEMI in the period between Marsh to September 2018. All patients were given the necessary information about the study. Zagazig University, Faculty of Medicine ethics committee approved our study, and a written informed consent was obtained from patients (patients included 63 males and 33 females patients with their age ranged from 46 and 75 years with a mean of 57.4 ± 6.8) . Conclusion: In the current study, we found highly significant positive correlation between admission heart rate and maximum highsensitive troponin T level and Gensini score > 20 in the setting of NSTEMI. A significant positive correlation between age, male gender, QRS measurements, QTc dispersion, LVESD and Grace score and Gensini score > 20 was found in the setting of NSTEMI. A significant negative correlation between LVEF and Gensini score > 20 was found.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
