The primary causes of death are arrhythmia and heart failure. For patients admitted because of myocardial infarction, various risk evaluations are initiated to foresee possible complications. The thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) risk score, which can be used to predict the prognosis and the need for revas-cularisation, is the most convenient and commonly used system, but is inadequate for AMI patients on admittance. Fragmented QRS (fQRS) has been shown to be a valuable electrocardiographic (ECG) index for predicting the prognosis of patients with coronary heart disease (Das et al., 2006, 2007).展开更多
