significantly higher mortality risk (in-hospital: odds ratio [OR], 2.11; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.48-3.00; 30-day: OR, 1.95; 95% CI, 1.46-2.61). Patients with KD who underwent coronary angiography experienced a 36% (P=.05) and 40% (P.001) lower risk of in-hospital and 30-day mortality, respectively, but this high-risk population still exhibited significantly higher case-fatality rates during hospitalization (3.3%) and at 30 days (4.6%) compared with patients without KD who underwent coronary angiography (0.7% and 1.3%, respectively;P.001 for all). Conclusions: In a real-world setting, KD was present in approximately one-third of patients with NSTE-ACS and is a powerful independent predictor of subsequent mortality. Patients with NSTE-ACS and KD referred for coronary angiography have a significantly lower risk of death, but this high-risk population continues to exhibit increased mortality rates despite intervention procedures.
