Predictors of in-hospital bundle branch block reversion after presenting with acute myocardial infarction and bundle branch block. GUSTO-I Investigators. Global Utilization of Streptokinase and t-PA for Occluded Coronary Arteries.

Patients with acute myocardial infarction and bundle branch block have a higher mortality rate and more in-hospital complications than patients with normal intraventricular conduction. Patients whose conduction defects revert have an improved prognosis (with outcomes similar to patients who never develop bundle branch block); thus, we analyzed potential predictors of bundle branch block reversion.
