Iron Deficiency Is Associated With Impaired Myocardial Reperfusion in ST‐Segment–Elevation Myocardial Infarction: Influence of the Definition Used
ID defined by transferrin saturation <20% is strongly related to impaired ST resolution and predicts a worse in-hospital outcome in patients with STEMI treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention. The association of other ID criteria with myocardial reperfusion or with the clinical course is weaker or absent. The potential preventive or therapeutic strategies targeting ID in STEMI warrant further investigation.
