In this study, we aimed to explore age-associated differences in treatment protocols, in-hospital and 1-year mortality. This cohort observational study included 277 consecutive AMI patients, separated into 2 groups according to whether their age was \u226580 years or not. We found that group I patients (aged \u226580 years) had a notably lower rate of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) performed (P &lt; 0.0001) and a notably higher in-hospital death rate (P &lt; 0.003). The multivariate logistic regression analysis found that three variables were independent predictors of in-hospital mortality: age \u226580 years (P &lt; 0.0001), LVEF &lt;40% (P &lt; 0.0001), and Killip class \u22653 (P &lt; 0.0001). The 1-year death rate was again significantly higher in group I patients (P &lt; 0.001) and was independently predicted by the triple-vessel coronary artery disease (P = 0.004) and an LVEF &lt;40% at admission (P = 0.001). The 1-year readmission rate was superior in group I (P &lt; 0.01) and independently predicted by an age \u226580 years (P &lt; 0.001), and an history of congestive heart failure (P &lt; 0.0001) or permanent atrial fibrillation (P &lt; 0.001). We concluded that patients aged \u226580 benefit less often from a PCI and have higher rates of in-hospital mortality, as well as of 1-year readmission and mortality rates.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.31083\/j.rcm2202056","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,5]],"date-time":"2021-07-05T05:11:38Z","timestamp":1625461898000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Independent predictors of in-hospital and 1-year mortality rates in octogenarians with acute myocardial infarction"],"prefix":"10.31083","volume":"22","author":[{"given":"Florina","family":"C\u0103runtu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Cardiology Clinic, Timisoara Municipal Clinical Emergency Hospital, 300024 Timi\u0219oara, Romania"},{"name":"Multidisciplinary Heart Research Center, Victor Babe\u0219 University of Medicine and Pharmacy, 300041 Timi\u0219oara, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Diana Aurora","family":"Bordejevic","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Multidisciplinary Heart Research Center, Victor Babe\u0219 University of Medicine and Pharmacy, 300041 Timi\u0219oara, Romania"},{"name":"Cardiology Clinic, Timisoara Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases, 300310 Timi\u0219oara, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bogdan","family":"Buz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Cardiology Clinic, Timisoara Municipal Clinical Emergency Hospital, 300024 Timi\u0219oara, Romania"},{"name":"Multidisciplinary Heart Research Center, Victor Babe\u0219 University of Medicine and Pharmacy, 300041 Timi\u0219oara, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alexandru","family":"Gheorghiu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Multidisciplinary Heart Research Center, Victor Babe\u0219 University of Medicine and Pharmacy, 300041 Timi\u0219oara, Romania"},{"name":"Cardiology Clinic, Timisoara Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases, 300310 Timi\u0219oara, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mirela Cleopatra","family":"Tomescu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Cardiology Clinic, Timisoara Municipal Clinical Emergency Hospital, 300024 Timi\u0219oara, Romania"},{"name":"Multidisciplinary Heart Research Center, Victor Babe\u0219 University of Medicine and Pharmacy, 300041 Timi\u0219oara, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"16242","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Schiele F, Meneveau N, Seronde MF, Descotes-Genon V, Oettinger J, Ecarnot F, et al.
