Overview

Risk Factors

Risk factors for reperfusion injury include

It is important to identify the risk factors associated with worse reperfusion injury in STEMI patients. This may help in early risk stratification and develop therapeutic targets to reduce the infarct size associated with reperfusion injury. These risk factors also increase the risk of a first cardiac event and emphasize the importance of secondary prevention. Most of these associations are based on animal studies and includes:
