Popis: Several reports have alluded to the adverse effect of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) on long-term prognosis of patients with myocardial infarction (MI). Little information is available, however, regarding the effects of a decrease in cardiopulmonary reserve imposed by COPD on in-hospital outcome of acute MI. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of COPD on acute-phase outcome of patients with acute MI. From a cohort of 3,249 consecutive patients with ST-elevation MI who underwent primary or rescue percutaneous coronary intervention, 365 patients were identified as having coexistent COPD. Their clinical presentation and in-hospital outcome were compared to those of 2,884 patients without COPD. The primary end point was a composite of in-hospital death or cardiogenic shock on presentation. Patients with COPD were older (p
