Therefore it was classified as having a very good predictive value. Conclusions: The fibrinogen-lipoprotein(a) index showed an excellent predictive value for short-term complications in patients with acute coronary syndrome. http://www.revcorsalud.sld.cu/index.php/cors/article/download/75/164Lipoprotein(a)FibrinogenAtherosclerosisAcute coronary syndromeRisk Factors |

Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases are the cause of the largest number of anualdeaths in the developed world, so they are considered a scourge on mankind; these include ischemic heart disease.
Objectives: To determine the value of lipoprotein(a), fibrinogen and fibrinogen-lipoprotein(a) index in predicting short-term complications in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
Method: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted in 115 patients admitted with acute coronary syndrome to the Dr. CelestinoHernández Robau Hospital in Santa Clara, from November 2012 to October 2013.
Results: The study included 43 female and 72 male patients. The most frequent risk factors included hypertension (70.43%), dyslipidemia (50.43%) and a family history of coronary artery disease (47.83%). Complications occurred in 39 patients (33.9%).

Therefore it was classified as having a very good predictive value.
