We examined the prevalence of ST-segment depression and Q-waves on admission and discharge electrocardiograms (ECGs) and their prognostic impact on 6-month death and recurrent myocardial infarction rates among patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Those with persistent ST-segment depression at discharge and those with Q-waves had greater morbidity and mortality than those without such changes. This study provides novel insights into the dynamic ECG changes that occur between admission and discharge and their value for predicting long-term outcomes in patients with non-ST-segment elevation ACS.
