Values are expressed as count (percentage) or median (range). CK‐MB indicates creatine kinase‐MB; ECLS, extracorporeal life support; IABP, intra‐aortic‐balloon pump; ICU, intensive care unit; NSTEMI, non–ST‐segment–elevation myocardial infarction; PRBC, packed red blood cells; STEMI, ST‐segment–elevation myocardial infarction; TC, thrombocyte concentrate.
