The Predictive Value of Fragmented QRS for Cardiovascular Events in Acute Myocardial Infarction: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Conclusion: Fragmented QRS is significantly associated with in-hospital and long-term mortality and MACE in patients with AMI, as well as ventricular arrhythmias and heart failure. Furthermore, it may be a marker of mortality and MACE risk. Moreover, fQRS also indicates a reduced LVEF and a high incidence of coronary artery triple vessel lesions in AMI patients.Meta-analysis Registration:https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero; ID: CRD42020171668.
