- ItemInterventional therapy of acute coronary syndromes in very old patient population and results of 2 years follow‑up(Springer, 2023) Boyraz, Bedrettin; Peker, Tezcan; Akgümüş, Alkame; Balun, Ahmet; 313898Background Research on cardiovascular treatment options and prognosis in very old age groups of patients is warranted. In our study, we evaluated and followed up on clinical conditions on admission and comorbidities of patients older than 80 years who were admitted to our hospital with acute myocardial infarction and shared our findings. Results A total of 144 patients were included in the study, with a mean age of 84.56 ± 5.01 years. No complications resulting in death or requiring surgery were observed in the patients. All-cause mortality was found to be related to heart failure, chronic pulmonary disease shock, and C-reactive protein levels. Cardiovascular mortality was correlated to heart failure, shock on admission, and C-reactive protein levels. No significant difference in mortality was observed between Non-ST elevated myocardial infarction and ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Conclusions Percutaneous coronary intervention is a safe treatment option with low complication and mortality rates in very old patients with acute coronary syndromes.
