Background: The effects of pre-existing anaemia on the occurrence and course of an acute coronary syndrome has recently become a topic of extensive research. The data on the significance of anaemia in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are less abundant and the conclusions equivocal. Aim: To evaluate the incidence of anaemia and its impact on early outcomes in patients undergoing primary PCI for STEMI. Methods: Based on a retrospective review of the medical records of hospitalised patients we selected a study group comprising 551 consecutive patients with STEMI, including 164 females, mean age 63.4 ± 12 years, undergoing primary PCI within the first 12 hours afte...
