We evaluated the relationship between admission heart rate (HR) and coronary artery disease severity and complexity in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). A total of 884 patients (mean age 59 [11] years, 24.7% female) who underwent coronary angiography for ACS and were treated with primary or selective percutaneous coronary intervention were included in this cross-sectional study. The measurement of admission HR was based on the first available resting electrocardiogram after admission. The SYNTAX score (SS) was calculated. Patients with an SS ≤ 22 (n = 538) were classified as the low SS group and those with an SS > 22 (n = 346) were classified as the intermediate-to-high SS group. Admission HR was greater in the intermediate-to-high SS group compared with the low SS group (75 [10] bpm vs 67 [8] bpm, P < .001). Admission HR was positively and significantly correlated with the SS ( r = 0.475, P < .001). After multivariate analysis, admission HR (per 1 standard deviation, ie, 10 bpm) remained an independent predictor of intermediate-to-high SS (odds ratio: 3.135, 95% confidence interval: 2.538-3.873, P < .001). Admission HR is independently and positively associated with the SS. Thus, elevated admission HR may be useful to identify patients with ACS with a high coronary atherosclerotic plaque burden.
