Predictive value of the NORPACS score for malignant ventricular arrhythmias in STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI
The NORPACS score is an independent and incremental predictor of early MVA in STEMI patients undergoing PCI. Its integration into clinical-laboratory risk models enhances risk stratification and may guide intensified monitoring in high-risk patients. Prospective multicenter validation is warranted.
