Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Patients with age more than 18 years, presented with acute ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and eligible for reperfusion therapy as per STEMI protocol will be included in the study after taking informed consent. Acute STEMI will be diagnosed based on universal de�nition of myocardial infarction.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: • STEMI patients in whom thrombolysis or primary PTCA not indicated according to guidelines like late presentation • STEMI patients undergo Pharmacoinvasive PTCA • Patients with acute or chronic inflammatory diseases, those with bacterial infections & sepsis and patients taking steroidal or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs • Patients with significant underlying other systemic disorders like chronic renal or hepatic or respiratory failure and malignancy • Patients underwent any surgery in the last 4 weeks before STEMI • Pregnant female presented with STEMI
