Description
Summary:A number of studies demonstrate that patients with traditional risk factors (TRF) have not only increases primary risk of atherothrombotic events, but are also associated with many complicates and poor prognosis.Purpose: assessment of TRF effect on the incidence of complications and outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Materials and methods: in 255 patients hospitalized with ACS were retrospective determined the TRF prevalence, frequency of the complications and correlation between the presence of TRF and the risk of complications and long-term prognosis (follow-up 1 year).Results: patients had TRF very often, 80% patients had more than 3 TRFs. The presence of some TRFs (smoking, abdominal obesity, family history) was associated with a significantly increased risk of complications in patients with ACS, including life-threatening. Effect of TRF on long-term prognosis was not determined.Conclusion: the findings suggest the need to evaluation TRF not only in primary preventive and also to improve the effectiveness of risk stratification in patients with ACS.
