There is no up-to-date information regarding presentation, management and clinical course of patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) in Turkey. TURKMI registry is designed to provide insight to the characteristics, management from symptom onset to the hospital discharge and outcome of patients with acute MI in Turkey.
Background: There is no up-to-date information regarding presentation, management and clinical course of patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) in Turkey. TURKMI registry is designed to provide insight to the characteristics, management from symptom onset to the hospital discharge and outcome of patients with acute MI in Turkey.
Methods: TURKMI study, as a nation-wide registry, will be conducted in 50 percutaneous coronary intervention -capable centres selected from each EuroStat NUTS region in Turkey according to their population sampling weight, prioritizing the volume of hospital in each region. All consecutive patients with acute MI admitted to the coronary care units within the 48 hours of symptom onset will be prospectively enrolled during a predefined 2-week period.
The first step of the study has cross-sectional design in which baseline information such as symptoms, risk factors, time periods at each step from symptom onset to revascularization, way of arrival to hospital, biochemical analysis and in-hospital management and outcome will be assessed. The second step has a cohort characteristics in which enrolled patients will be followed-up up to 2 years. Follow-up visits will be conducted at 1st, 6th, 12th and 24th months, and predictors and risk of cardiovascular events, and implementation of guidelines will be assessed as secondary outcomes.
Conclusion: The national TURKMI registry is expected to provide important information to improve the national policy of the diagnosis, management and outcomes of MI in Turkey
