Abstract:
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:The management of cardiac ischemic patients differs depending on their comorbidity. The Charlson Index (ChI) and its adaptations are well established and widely used tools to quantify a patient comorbidity. The aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of comorbidity quantified by the ChI in the treatment administered at admission and in the pharmacological treatment prescribed at discharge in the setting of an acute myocardial infarction with and without ST segment elevation.
PATIENTS AND METHOD:We studied a total of 955 patients consecutively admitted in our hospital with the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction. Comorbidity was obtained at the first day of admission applying the ChI. According to this value patients were classified from minor to major in 2 subgroups (ChI
