Purpose
To investigate the prognostic significance of a fragmented QRS (fQRS) complex in a patient who had undergone primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Further study details as provided by Bursa Postgraduate Hospital:
Primary Outcome Measures:
- Major Adverse Cardiac Events [ Designated as safety issue: No ]the presence of a fQRS at 48 hours after primary PCI is a significant parameter in predicting adverse cardiovascular events;
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Q Wave and QRS distortion for predicting major adverse cardiac events [ Designated as safety issue: No ]the presence of a fQRS is a more sensitive and specific parameter in predicting development of adverse cardiovascular events than Q wave and QRS distortion; and compared to Q wave, fQRS correlated more significantly with the presence of a scar

Study Population
patients who presented to the hospital within 12 hours of the onset of chest pain who were admitted to the coronary intensive care unit (ICU) with the diagnosis of acute STEMI and who were administered primary PCI. Having acute STEMI for the first time was stipulated for inclusion in the study.
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Patients with chest pain that continued longer than 30 minutes and with ≥ 2 mm ST elevation in ECG at least in two adjacent derivations were diagnosed with an acute STEMI. In all patients, at least two-fold increases were seen in serum CK-MB levels compared to normal values.Having acute STEMI for the first time was stipulated for inclusion in the study.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Subjects with known allergies to aspirin and clopidogrel, inadequate echocardiographic images, malignancy, a previous cerebrovascular event, renal dysfunction (creatine level > 2.5 mg/dl), a previous MI, or a history of cardiogenic shock as well as those who refused to participate in the study were excluded.
