The 'Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction', or TIMI Study Group is an Academic Research Organization (ARO) affiliated with Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School. The group has its headquarters in Boston, Massachusetts, and a satellite location in Quincy. The TIMI Study Group was founded by Eugene Braunwald, MD in 1984. Dr. Braunwald held the chairmanship until 2010, when he appointed Marc Sabatine, MD to the position. The group has conducted numerous practice-changing clinical trials in patients with cardiovascular disease or risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Among the group's most important contributions to medicine is the TIMI Risk Score, which assess the risk of death and ischemic events in patients experiencing unstable angina or a non-ST elevation myocardial infarction. ==TIMI Calculators== ===TIMI Risk Score=== In patients with UA/NSTEMI, the TIMI risk score is a simple prognostication scheme that categorizes a patient's risk of death and ischemic events and provides a basis for therapeutic decision making.〔Elliott M. Antman, MD; Marc Cohen, MD; Peter J. L. M. Bernink, MD; Carolyn H. McCabe, BS; Thomas Horacek,MD,("The TIMI Risk Score for Unstable Angina/Non–ST Elevation MI" ), ''JAMA'', 2000〕 TIMI Score Calculation (1 point for each): * Age ≥ 65 * Aspirin use in the last 7 days (patient experiences chest pain despite ASA use in past 7 days) * At least 2 angina episodes within the last 24hrs * ST changes of at least 0.5mm in contiguous leads * Elevated serum cardiac biomarkers * Known Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) (coronary stenosis ≥ 50%) * At least 3 risk factors for CAD, such as: * * Hypertension -> 140/90 or on anti-hypertensives * * Current cigarette smoker * * Low HDL cholesterol (< 40 mg/dL) * * Diabetes mellitus * * Family history of premature CAD * * *Male first-degree relative or father younger than 55 * * *Female first-degree relative or mother younger than 65 Score Interpretation: % risk at 14 days of: all-cause mortality, new or recurrent MI, or severe recurrent ischemia requiring urgent revascularization. * Score of 0-1 = 4.7% risk * Score of 2 = 8.3% risk * Score of 3 = 13.2% risk * Score of 4 = 19.9% risk * Score of 5 = 26.2% risk * Score of 6-7 = at least 40.9% risk 'TIMI risk' estimates mortality following acute coronary syndromes. TIMI risk can be calculated on the TIMI website under "Clinical Calculators." 〔(TIMI Risk Score )〕 The TIMI Risk Score for STEMI is also useful for patients with known STEMI. Though these patients have a clear protocol - normally thrombolysis or Percutaneous coronary intervention - and are already high risk for mortality, the TIMI Risk Score for STEMI provide risk stratification which helps treatment decisions after acute issues have been resolved.〔David A.
