Background: Rapid door-to-balloon times in ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention are associated with favorable outcomes. Objectives: We evaluated the effects of prearrival direct notification calls to interventional cardiologists on door-to-balloon time for ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Methods: A 24-h hotline was created to allow prearrival direct notification calls to interventional cardiologists when transferring ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients. In an urban, tertiary referral center, patients who visited via inter-facility or the emergency department directly were included. Clinical parameters, time to reperfusion therapy, and in-hospital mortality were compared between patients with and without prearrival notifications. Results: Of 228 ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients, 95 (41.7%) were transferred with prearrival notifications. In these patients, door-to-balloon time was shorter (50.0 vs 60.0 min, p = 0.010) and the proportion of patients with door-to-balloon time < 90 min was higher (89.5% vs 75.9%, p = 0.034) than patients without notifications. These improvements were more pronounced during “off-duty” hours (52.0 vs 78.0 min, p = 0.001; 88.3% vs 72.3%, p = 0.047, respectively) than during “on-duty” hours (37.5 vs 43.5 min, p = 0.164; 94.4% vs 79.4%, p = 0.274, respectively). In addition, door-to-activation time (–39 vs 11 min, p < 0.001) and door-to-catheterization laboratory arrival time (33 vs 42 min, p = 0.007) were shorter in patients with prearrival notifications than those without. However, in-hospital mortality was similar between the two groups (6.3% vs 6.8%, p = 0.892). Conclusion: Prearrival direct notification calls to interventional cardiologists significantly improved the door-to-balloon time and the proportion of patients with door-to-balloon time < 90 min through rapid patient transport in primary percutaneous coronary intervention scheduled hospital and readiness of the catheterization laboratory.

The PREdicting bleeding Complications In patients undergoing Stent implantation and subsEquent Dual Anti-Platelet Therapy (PRECISE-DAPT) score predicts the bleeding risk in patients treated with dual antiplatelet treatment after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI). This study aimed to determine the predictive value of the admission PRECISE-DAPT score for in-hospital mortality in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated with pPCI. Of the 1418 patients enrolled, the study population was divided into 2 groups: PRECISE-DAPT score ≥25 and PRECISE-DAPT score <25. The primary goal was to determine the incidence of in-hospital all-cause mortality. In-hospital mortality was significantly higher in patients whose PRECISE-DAPT score ≥25 compared with the patients whose PRECISE-DAPT score <25 (9.4 vs 0.9%; P < .001, respectively). Both univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard analyses showed that the PRECISE-DAPT score is independently associated with in-hospital mortality (hazards ratio [HR]: 1.043, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.003-1.084; P = .035; and HR: 1.026, 95% CI: 1.004-1.048; P = .021, respectively). A pairwise comparison of receiver operating characteristic curves showed that the predictive value of the PRECISE-DAPT score with regard to in-hospital mortality was noninferior compared with the Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction risk score. The PRECISE-DAPT score may be a significant independent predictor of in-hospital mortality in patients with STEMI treated with pPCI.

Background and Aims- Reperfusion therapy is indicated for patient with acute ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction. Several randomized trials and meta-analyses have shown that Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention is better than thrombolysis. Our aim was to determine the outcomes of Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Shahid Gangalal National Heart Centre, Nepal. Methods- Medical records of 212 Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention from March 2007 to March 2012 were retrospectively reviewed. The primary end point was in-hospital mortality and secondary end points were 30 day mortality and long term mortality. Results- In the patients presenting to emergency with acute ST elevation myocardial infarction, inferior wall Myocardial Infarction 64 (30%) was the most common. Single vessel disease 168 (79%) predominated in emergency coronary angiogram. In majority of the patients Right Coronary Artery 103 (48.7%) was the culprit vessel. Cardiogenic shock was present in 28 (13.2%) patients. There were 11 deaths (39.2%) in cardiogenic shock group where as only 5 deaths (2.7%) among 184 non cardiogenic shock patients, resulting in in hospital mortality rate of 7.5%. Among the 196 patients who were successfully discharged from the hospital, 21 patients lost to follow up. There was one death reported within a month, non within three months and four within a year post discharge from the hospital. Conclusions- The result of this study is comparable to the findings elsewhere in the world. Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention should be the treatment of choice in treating acute myocardial infarction where the facilities and the expertise are available.
