Introduction: Identifying reperfusion and predicting post procedure risk is important following Percutaneous Coronary Interventions (PCI). An Angiographic Perfusion Score (APS) combining TIMI flow (TFG) and myocardial perfusion (TMPG) grades before and after PCI can accurately measure both epicardial and myocardial perfusion and predict Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE). Patients and methods: APS was calculated in 226 (88 ST elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) and 138 Non STEMI) patients. Maximum score being 12, reperfusion was defined as failed: 0–3, partial: 4–9, and full APS: 10–12. Thirty day MACE were observed. Results: APS identified reperfusion significantly more than TMPG alone (STEMI: 50.6% vs 11.8% (p |
