Abstract:Background
Acute total occlusion (ATO) is diagnosed in a substantial proportion of patients with Non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). We compared procedural outcomes and long- term mortality in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) with NSTEMI with vs. without ATO.
