Abstract

A combined retrospective and prospective cohort study was conducted on 240 patients with non–ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to determine the 6-month rate of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and associated factors. The mean age was 69.4 ± 12.1 years old, and 62.1% were male. The 6-month MACE rate was 29.2%, with rehospitalization for heart failure being the most frequent event (10.0%), followed by in-hospital mortality (7.9%) and recurrent myocardial infarction after discharge (5.4%). Univariable logistic regression identified associations between MACE and age, comorbidities, Killip class, renal function, NT-proBNP, left ventricular ejection fraction, GRACE score, and left main coronary artery disease (LMCAD). In multivariable analysis, dyslipidemia (OR = 3.13; 95% CI: 1.58 - 6.20), Killip class ≥ II at admission (OR = 4.33; 95% CI: 2.19 - 8.56), and LMCAD (OR = 4.62; 95% CI: 2.17 - 9.85) remained independently associated with MACE. These findings indicate that patients with NSTEMI undergoing PCI remain at a high risk of adverse events within 6 months, particularly those with high clinical and anatomical risk profiles, underscoring the value of early risk stratification in post-procedural management and follow-up.
