Core Tip	Risk stratification is recommended in non ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) by multiple international cardiology agencies however there is no such recommendation for STEMI. The short term risk of STEMI is perceived to be high and warrant emergency percutaneous coronary intervention rather than pharmacological fibrinolysis. The risk spectrum is wide therefore consideration should be given to developing an optimal reperfusion strategy based on risk of adverse outcome and probability of reperfusion regardless of mode of reperfusion. We review the currentl risk scores and evaluate the need for risk scoring in PPCI. This may provide optimal care for the individual and have socio-economic benefit.
