AB  - AIM: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) continues to be the main cause of mortality 
      and morbidity globally. The aim was to assess serum procalcitonin (PCT), mean 
      corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) and mean platelet volume (MPV) levels 
      in terms of complications after myocardial infarctus, triple vein coronary artery 
      disease (TVCAD), and mortality prediction. MATERIAL AND METHOD: This 
      cross-sectional cohort study included 200 patients with ACS attending the 
      emergency department of our hospital with chest pain and admitted to the 
      cardiology clinic from January 2014 to December 2016. Patients were divided into 
      4 groups as inferior group, anterior group, NSTEMI group, and UA group according 
      to diagnosis. These groups were compared in terms of complications occurring 
      after MI, TVCAD, and mortality rates. RESULTS: There were significant differences 
      in terms of complications forming after ACS, TVCAD, and mortality. The inferior 
      subgroup had high PCT and MCHC levels and was found to have more complications 
      developing and mortality compared to other groups. Patients with high PCT and MPV 
      values were identified to have higher mortality and TVCAD. In the anterior 
      subgroup, ischemic heart failure was higher compared to the other groups. In the 
      interior, anterior, and non-ST elevated myocardial infarctus (NSTEMI) groups, the 
      0-, 6-, and 12-hour cTnI values were significantly higher compared to the UA 
      group, while the anterior group had a significantly higher 12-hour cTnI value 
      compared to the NSTEMI group. Correlation analysis for PCT, MCHC, and MPV with 
      complications developing after MI, mortality, and TVCAD found positive and 
      statistically significant correlations. CONCLUSION: High PCT, MCHC, and MPV 
      levels in acute coronary syndrome may be beneficial predictive values in terms of 
      complications that may develop, TVCAD, and mortality.
