In this sample of 405 patients undergoing PPCI, SBP/LVEDP ratio had the strongest correlation with peak troponin levels and LVEDP with EF, whereas SBP/LVEDP and SBP had a strong association with in-hospital mortality. These results suggest that measurement of LVEDP as well as SBP may help risk stratify patients during PPCI.
