Low free Tri-iodothyronine (FT₃) levels are generally associated with poor prognosis in patients with various critical illnesses. Acute ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) represents the most lethal form of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) with substantial short- and long-term mortality. This study was done to assess the association between FT₃ levels and in-hospital outcome of the STEMI patients treated with streptokinase therapy. This was an observational study of 140 patients of STEMI treated with streptokinase therapy in the department of Cardiology, National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases (NICVD), Dhaka, Bangladesh from October 2018 to September 2019. The patients were divided into the low FT₃ (FT₃ <3.5 pmol/L; n=70) and the normal FT₃ (FT₃ ≥3.5 pmol/L; n=70) groups according to FT₃ levels measured within 24 hours after admission. During the index hospitalization period, 13 patients died (9.0%) and the overall mortality rates were 18.6% in the low FT₃ group and 5.7% in the normal FT₃ group (p=0.01). The rates of Major cardiac events (MACE) were 45.7% in the low FT₃ group and 18.6% in the normal FT3 group (p=0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed FT₃ level is an important predictor for in-hospital major cardiac events in patients with ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction (p=0.01). Low FT₃ levels were strongly associated with poor in-hospital outcome in patients with STEMI. The FT₃ level screening may be a simple and valuable way in identifying high-risk STEMI patients.
