An admission BUN >8.95 mmol/L was robustly associated with increased short-term mortality and MACE in patients with CS after AMI. The prognostic value of BUN was superior to other renal markers and comparable to traditional markers. This easily accessible index might be promising for early risk stratification in CS patients following AMI.
