In-hospital mortality of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients varies between 1% and 19% in Asia. Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events (GRACE) score and Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) score are the most frequently used risk scores for predicting in-hospital mortality. These two scores have different accuracy depending on the risk profiles of each region. This study aimed to identify the difference in accuracy between GRACE and TIMI scores.
