"Short-term Outcome in STEMI Patients Undergoing Primary PCI: A Comparative Study Between Rural and Urban Communities at Assiut University."
Sponsor: Assiut University
Summary
this study aims to assess the short-term (3-month) clinical and echocardiographic outcomes of primary PCI among STEMI patients from rural versus urban areas in Upper Egypt. A special focus will be placed on identifying predictors of MACE. The findings may offer valuable insight into optimizing STEMI care pathways and support the development of regional STEMI networks across Egypt.
