The mortality of patients with MI in this study was higher than in other reports. Killip's class, pulmonary hypertension, infection, ischemic stroke, and inferobasal regional wall motion abnormalities were significantly associated with the in-hospital mortality of the patients with MI. There was a higher degree of inconsistency between ECG and Echo findings. The treatment of patients with MI should be tailored to their specific risk factors and causes.
