But it still remain controversial. Methods All 383 STEMI patients underwent percutaneous intervention(PCI)from Jan 2015 to Jan 2017 in our center were enrolled in this prospective study. Baseline characteristics,medical history,biochemical findings,echocardiographic and angiographic parameters,procedures performed and complications were recorded. Factors related to worse outcome CTO in STEMI patients were analyzed by the cox logistic regression analysis for the hazard rate(HR). Results In a total of 383 patients enrolled in this study,85 cases had CTO in at least 1 coronary artery. The mean follow-up was 352 days. 1-year mortality and MACE ratesinpatients with CTO were 18.8% and 11.8%,respectively. Major adverse cardiac events(MACE)during follow-up were significantly higher in patients with CTO(HR=2.88;95%CI,1.82-4.77;P<0.001). The multivariate analysis showed a significant association between CTO and MACE(HR=2.11 95%CI,1.27-3.88;P=0.014). Conclusion Chronic total occlusion is associated with higher risk of comorbidities and higher mortality,and serves as an independent predictor of MACE.展开更多
