Abstract. Background: Patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) are at high risk for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The objective of this nationwide analysis was to explore the association of PAD with in-hospital mortality in patients hospitalized for acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Patients and methods: Data on all in-patient hospitalizations in Germany are continuously transferred to the Federal Statistical Office (DESTATIS), as required by federal law. These case-based data on AMI in the years 2005, 2007 and 2009 were analyzed regarding ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) as the primary diagnoses and concomitant PAD as the secondary diagnosis with respect to age and gender related disparity. Results: We analyzed 619,103 AMI cases, including 270,026 (43.6 %) with STEMI and 349,077 (56.4 %) with NSTEMI. The PAD ratio was 3.4 % in STEMI and 5.7 % in NSTEMI. In STEMI, in-hospital mortality was 15.6 % in cases with PAD vs. 12.0 % without, and 12.0 % vs. 9.8 % in NSTEMI, respectively (P < 0.001; 2009). Although female gender was associated with a significantly higher in-hospital mortality, the presence of PAD particularly negatively affected in-hospital mortality in men (+ 60 % male vs - 11 % female in STEMI; + 33 % male vs - 3 % female in NSTEMI). Conclusions: Our data demonstrate the adverse impact of concomitant PAD on in-hospital mortality in AMI, in a large-scale, real-world scenario. Further research, particularly with a focus on gender, is needed to identify diagnostic and therapeutic measures to reduce the remarkably high in-hospital mortality of AMI patients with concomitant PAD.

Significant Difference

Background ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction is known to be associated with worse short-term outcome than non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. However, whether or not this trend holds true in patients with a high Killip class has been unclear. Methods We analyzed 3704 acute myocardial infarction patients with Killip II–IV class from the Japan Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry and compared the short-term outcomes between ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction ( n = 2943) and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction ( n = 761). In addition, we also performed the same analysis in different age subgroups: <80 years and ≥80 years. Results In the overall population, there were no significant difference in the in-hospital mortality (20.0% vs 17.1%, p = 0.065) between ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction groups. Patients <80 years of age also showed no difference in the in-hospital mortality (15.7% vs 15.2%, p = 0.807) between ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction ( n = 2001) and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction ( n = 453) groups, whereas among those ≥80 years of age, ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction ( n = 942) was associated with significantly higher in-hospital mortality (29.3% vs 19.8%, p = 0.001) and in-hospital cardiac mortality (23.3% vs 15.0%, p = 0.002) than non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction ( n = 308). After adjusting for covariates, ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction was a significant predictor for in-hospital mortality (odds ratio 2.117; 95% confidence interval, 1.204–3.722; p = 0.009) in patients ≥80 years of age. Conclusion Among cases of acute myocardial infarction with a high Killip class, there was no marked difference in the short-term outcomes between ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction in younger patients, while ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction showed worse short-term outcomes in elderly patients than non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Future study identifying the prognostic factors for the specific anticipation intensive cares is needed in this high-risk group.

This recent Turkish Myocardial Infarction registry reported that guidelines are largely implemented in patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) in Turkey. We aimed to obtain up-to-date information for short- and midterm outcomes of acute MI. Fifty centers were selected using probability sampling, and all consecutive patients with acute MI admitted to these centers (between November 1 and 16, 2018) were enrolled. Among 1930 (mean age 62 ± 13 years, 26% female) patients, 1195 (62%) had non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and 735 (38%) had ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was performed in 94.4% of patients with STEMI and 60.2% of those with NSTEMI. Periprocedural mortality occurred in 4 (0.3%) patients. In-hospital mortality was significantly higher in STEMI than in patients with NSTEMI (5.4% vs 2.9%, respectively; P = .006). However, the risk became slightly higher in the NSTEMI group at 1 year. Women with STEMI had a significantly higher in-hospital mortality compared with men (11.2% vs 3.8%; P < .001); this persisted at follow-up. In conclusion, PCI is performed in Turkey with a low risk of complications in patients with acute MI. Compared with a previous registry, in-hospital mortality decreased by 50% within 20 years; however, the risk remains too high for women with STEMI.

Hospital Cardiac Arrest

Background Studies have reported significant reduction in acute myocardial infarction–related hospitalizations during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic. However, whether these trends are associated with increased incidence of out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in this population is unknown. Methods and Results Acute myocardial infarction hospitalizations with OHCA during the COVID‐19 period (February 1–May 14, 2020) from the Myocardial Ischaemia National Audit Project and British Cardiovascular Intervention Society data sets were analyzed. Temporal trends were assessed using Poisson models with equivalent pre–COVID‐19 period (February 1–May 14, 2019) as reference. Acute myocardial infarction hospitalizations during COVID‐19 period were reduced by >50% (n=20 310 versus n=9325). OHCA was more prevalent during the COVID‐19 period compared with the pre–COVID‐19 period (5.6% versus 3.6%), with a 56% increase in the incidence of OHCA (incidence rate ratio, 1.56; 95% CI, 1.39–1.74). Patients experiencing OHCA during COVID‐19 period were likely to be older, likely to be women, likely to be of Asian ethnicity, and more likely to present with ST‐segment–elevation myocardial infarction. The overall rates of invasive coronary angiography (58.4% versus 71.6%; P <0.001) were significantly lower among the OHCA group during COVID‐19 period with increased time to reperfusion (mean, 2.1 versus 1.1 hours; P =0.05) in those with ST‐segment–elevation myocardial infarction. The adjusted in‐hospital mortality probability increased from 27.7% in February 2020 to 35.8% in May 2020 in the COVID‐19 group ( P <.001). Conclusions In this national cohort of hospitalized patients with acute myocardial infarction, we observed a significant increase in incidence of OHCA during COVID‐19 period paralleled with reduced access to guideline‐recommended care and increased in‐hospital mortality.

Abstract Background Although primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) is the optimal reperfusion method for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), it remains difficult to implement in many areas. Some STEMI patients have to accept fibrinolytic therapy and no reperfusion therapy instead. Purpose The aim of this study was to describe the impact of reperfusion therapy on the long-term outcomes of STEMI patients in China. Methods Using data from the China Acute Myocardial Infarction (CAMI) registry, we analyzed the 2-year outcomes of 18,075 STEMI patients symptom onset within 7 days from January 2013 to September 2014 according to the type of reperfusion therapy. The primary endpoint was a composite of major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE), defined as all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction or stroke. Results 7798 (43%) were treated with pPCI and 1798 (10%) underwent fibrinolysis; 8479 (47%) did not receive any reperfusion. The 2-year MACE was 9.6% following pPCI, 15.7% following fibrinolysis, and 21.5% for patients without reperfusion therapy (P<0.0001). Adjusted hazard ratios for 2-year MACE were 0.71 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.65–0.78, P<0.0001) for pPCI versus no reperfusion and 0.92 (95% CI 0.82–1.03, P=0.16) for fibrinolysis versus no reperfusion. Compared with patients without reperfusion, fibrinolysis only showed benefit in patients presented within 3 hours of symptom onset (HR 0.70, 95% CI 0.57–0.85, P=0.0005), whereas pPCI was associated with significantly decreased 2-year MACE rate in patients presented within 3 hours (HR 0.53, 95% CI 0.44–0.64, P<0.0001), 3–6 hours (HR 0.60, 95% CI 0.51–0.71, P<0.0001) and >6 hours (HR 0.86, 95% CI 0.76–0.97, P=0.01) of symptom onset. Adjusted cumulative MACE rate Conclusions In a real-world setting, early reperfusion is the optimal strategy for STEMI. Fibrinolysis was not associated with better outcome in STEMI patients admitted >3 hours of symptom onset in Chinese real world setting.

ObjectivesTo simplify our previous risk score for predicting the in-hospital mortality risk in patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) by dropping laboratory data.DesignProspective cohort.SettingMulticentre, 108 hospitals across three levels in China.ParticipantsA total of 5775 patients with NSTEMI enrolled in the China Acute Myocardial Infarction (CAMI) registry.Primary outcome measuresIn-hospital mortality.ResultsThe simplified CAMI-NSTEMI (SCAMI-NSTEMI) score includes the following nine variables: age, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, Killip classification, cardiac arrest, ST-segment depression on ECG, smoking status, previous angina and previous percutaneous coronary intervention. Within both the derivation and validation cohorts, the SCAMI-NSTEMI score showed a good discrimination ability (C-statistics: 0.76 and 0.83, respectively); further, the SCAMI-NSTEMI score had a diagnostic performance superior to that of the Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events risk score (C-statistics: 0.78 and 0.73, respectively; p<0.0001 for comparison). The in-hospital mortality increased significantly across the different risk groups.ConclusionsThe SCAMI-NSTEMI score can serve as a useful tool facilitating rapid risk assessment among a broader spectrum of patients admitted owing to NSTEMI.Trial registration numberNCT01874691.

Venous Stents

Venous thromboembolism is associated with significant morbidity and mortality if left untreated. Anticoagulation is the cornerstone of treatment. Venous stents are a relatively newer entity that are increasingly being used to treat venous stenosis/occlusion. It is a safe procedure, but complications include vein rupture, arterial puncture, retroperitoneal bleeding, and in-stent thrombosis. Stent migration is a rare but potentially fatal complication. We present a case of venous stent embolization to the heart that presented as a non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction.
