TIMI (Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction) score
The TIMI (Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction) score is a tool doctors use to assess how serious a patient’s heart attack (or risk of future problems) might be. It looks at specific factors like age, symptoms, health history, and test results to estimate the likelihood of complications or death. This score helps healthcare providers decide the best treatment approach and how aggressively to manage the condition, aiming to improve outcomes by tailoring care based on individual risk levels.
