Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains the leading cause of death in the developed world and second leading cause of death in developing countries. Elevated troponin levels and extent of ST-segment depressions are clinically important because they may act as an effective prognostic marker .This cross-sectional study has been designed to see the correlation of ST-segment depression and level of troponin I with in-hospital outcome of NSTEMI patients. The study was conducted in the Department of Cardiology, Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka during the period of April, 2011- March, 2012. A total of 90 patients were selected by purposive sampling. In this study,the mean ±SD age of the patients was 55.9±9.1 years with a range of 36-80 years with a male -female ratio of 2:1.Over all dyslipidaemia was the most common risk factor present in 55(61.10%) patients followed by smoking in 48(53.3%) patients then obesity in 32(35.60%) then hypertension in 31(34.4%) patients. Troponin I level was significantly high in patients who developed acute LVF (10.36±7.4 vs 7.0124±6.8, p=.027), and cardiogenic shock (13.72±11.37 vs 8.64±7.35, p=.033). Troponin I was significantly high in patients who developed complication (10.72±8.84 vs 6.24±5.41, p=.005) than the patients who were discharged without complication. ST segment depression was significantly more in patients who developed acute LVF(1.07±1.63 vs.55±.74, p=.048). Logistic regression analysis of acute LVF with Troponin I and ST-segment depression showed that ST-segment depression and level of Troponin I were important correlates of acute LVF .
