Outcomes After ST-segment Versus Non-ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Revascularized By Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

The objectives of this study were to investigate the outcome differences between ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) patients treated with coronary artery bypass grafting surgery (CABG). We conducted a multicenter, retrospective cohort follow-up study of consecutive patients with STEMI (surgery ≤48 hours of admission; n=348) or NSTEMI (n=1160) revascularized with first-time isolated CABG in Finland using nationwide registries (median age 68 years, 24% women).
