TLDR
Admission anemia in patients with ACS from six Middle-Eastern countries was strongly associated with mortality at in-hospital, one-month, and at one-year, Hence, admission anemia must be considered in the initial risk assessment of ACS patients along with other risk scores.
Abstract
Aim The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of admission anemia on in-hospital, one-month, and one-year mortality in patients from the Middle East with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

Anemia and red blood cell transfusion in critically ill cardiac patients

TL;DR: The epidemiology of anemia and RBC transfusion in hospitalized adults and children with cardiac disease, and on the outcome of anemic and transfused cardiac patients is reported.

Anemia and acute coronary syndrome: current perspectives.

TL;DR: Estimated prevalence of anemia on admission in the setting of an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is between 10% and 43% of the patients depending upon the specific population under investigation, and up to 57% of ACS patients may develop hospital-acquired anemia (HAA), even if different mechanisms contribute to their prognostic impact.

Prognostic impact of anaemia on patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction treated by primary PCI.

TL;DR: Although anaemia (based on the WHO definitions) does not appear to be an independent predictor of all-cause mortality or major adverse cardiac events after PPCI on multivariate analysis, there appears to be a threshold value of Hb among men, below which there is an associated increased risk for PPCi.

Association between admission anemia and long-term mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction: results from the MONICA/KORA myocardial infarction registry.

TL;DR: This study shows that anemia adversely affects long-term survival following AMI, however, further studies are needed to confirm that the presence of anemia can solely explain worse long- term outcomes after AMI.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of anaemia on mortality and its causes in elderly patients with acute coronary syndromes.

TL;DR: The impact of anaemia on cause specific of mortality seem to be different according to age subgroup, and in young patients the association between anaemia and mortality was significant only for non-cardiac causes.

Hemoglobin concentration is an independent determinant of heart failure in acute coronary syndromes: cohort analysis of 2310 patients.

TL;DR: Anemia is a common comorbidity in patients presenting with ACS, and it is a powerful independent determinant of LVF, which occurs not only in STEMI but also in less severe diagnostic groups.

Anaemia is an independent predictor of mortality in patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction following acute myocardial infarction.

TL;DR: This work investigated the prognostic importance of anaemia in patients with acute myocardial infarction and left ventricular systolic dysfunction with and without HF and found that mortality is inversely related to haemoglobin concentration.

Prognostic value of admission hemoglobin levels in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients presenting with cardiogenic shock

TL;DR: In conclusion, admission Hb concentration is an independent predictor for 1-year mortality in patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI.

Relation Between Hemoglobin Level and Recurrent Myocardial Ischemia in Acute Coronary Syndromes Detected by Continuous Electrocardiographic Monitoring

TL;DR: A lower hemoglobin level at presentation was independently associated with recurrent ischemia detected by continuous electrocardiographic monitoring in the setting of non-ST-segment elevation ACS, which suggests that anemia might predispose patients to recurrent isChemia, which could be an important underlying mediator of worse outcomes in patients with lower Hemoglobin levels.

Abnormal haemoglobin levels in acute coronary syndromes.

TL;DR: Increasing age and interventional management were associated with anaemia, which in turn was associated with adverse in-hospital outcomes, and Interventions to prevent and detect anaemia in this setting merit prospective testing.
