Abstract 13907: Patients With NSTEMI Are at Higher Risk, Have Worse Outcomes, but Less Intense Cardiology Follow-up 1-3 Years Post-discharge: Findings From the TIGRIS Registry
Abstract:Introduction:
Non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) patients have more comorbidities and extensive CAD than STEMI patients. However, there is a need for comparative data on the long-term prognosis and resource utilization of stable patients after these MI subtypes.
Methods:
