Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the correlations of red blood cell distribution width (RDW) and short term prognosis of patients with acute coronary syndrome.Methods 179 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) treated in our hospital between Jan.2008 to Apr.2009 were grouped by cutoff value of 14.4%.The incidence of acute myocardiac infarct( AMI),malignant arrhythmia,heart falure,sudden cardiac death(SCD) were compared in the two groups when patients were hospitalized and in half years of discharged.High-sensitivity C-reactive protein.(hs-CRP) ,BNP were also compared between the two groups.Results The incidences of cardiac adverse event were different between the two groups(AMI:39.47% vs.15.53% ,HF:22.22% vs.6.80% ,SCD:9.21% vs.1.94% and malignant arrhythmia:11.84% vs.3.90%,P values all less than 0.05 ).hs-CRP were ( 9.44 ± 8.03 ),(4.64 ±4.42) mg/L and BNP were (357.07 ± 161.60),(233.17 ± 134.76) ng/L in the two groups ( P ＜ 0.05 ).RDW is positively correlated with hs-CRP and BNP (r is 0.42 and 0.58 respectively,P-value all less than 0.05).Conclusions The RDW is related to the short term progonosis in patients with ACS,and also positively correllated with plasma hs-CRP and BNP levels.
