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.

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.

Background: Delay in symptom recognition and calling 911 for patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) continues to challenge many hospitals’ STEMI systems. Research has historically focused on door-to-balloon time and inpatient treatment, with little known on the impact of engaging emergency services (EMS) to provide a team approach to patient care, from community education to prehospital activation. Purpose: Evaluate the impact of a collaboration with local EMS agencies in our institution’s STEMI system designed to develop a prehospital protocol and joint community education efforts. Methods: Data collected from NCDR ACTION Registry-Mission Lifeline reports from 2011 to 2013 was analyzed to identify recent trends in prehospital STEMI quality metrics. After evaluation of 2011 data, a regional plan was developed and implemented in 2012 to address prehospital system barriers, including public education and revision of a prehospital protocol. Results: In 2011, a majority of patients used private transport when having a STEMI. Following protocol implementation, STEMI patients were able to identify symptoms earlier and appropriately call 911 earlier. As a result, a first medical contact (FMC)-to-balloon time of < 90 minutes increased to 72% of patients, time from symptom onset to balloon decreased, and postprocedure complication rate improved (Table). Conclusions: Establishing a collaborative prehospital protocol between hospitals and EMS can have a positive impact on outcomes in STEMI patients. With more awareness and earlier notification of incoming STEMI patients, hospitals can significantly decrease symptom onset-to-balloon time. Evaluation of time from symptom onset to device activation may be a better way to measure quality than door-to-balloon time, as evidenced by a decrease in postprocedure complications associated with decreased overall times.

Abstract Background Malnutrition and sarcopenia are common features of frailty. Prevalence of frailty among ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients is higher in women than men. Purpose Assess gender-based differences in the impact of nutritional risk index (NRI) and frailty in one-year mortality rate among STEMI patients following primary angioplasty (PA). Methods Cohort of 321 consecutive patients (64 years [54–75]; 22.4% women) admitted to a general ICU after PA for STEMI. NRI was calculated as 1.519 × serum albumin (g/L) + 41.7 × (actual body weight [kg]/ideal weight [kg]). Vulnerable and moderate to severe NRI patients were those with Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS)≥4 and NRI&lt;97.5, respectively. We used Kaplan-Meier survival model. Results Baseline and mortality variables of 4 groups (NRI-/CFS-; NRI+/CFS-; NRI+/CFS- and NRI+/CFS+) are depicted in the Table. Prevalence of malnutrition, frailty or both were significantly greater in women (34.3%, 10% y 21.4%, respectively) than in men (28.9%, 2.8% y 6.0%, respectively; P&lt;0.001). Women had greater mortality rate (20.8% vs. 5.2%: OR 4.78, 95% CI, 2.15–10.60, P&lt;0.001), mainly from cardiogenic shock (P=0.003). Combination of malnutrition and frailty significantly decreased cumulative one-year survival in women (46.7% vs. 73.3% in men, P&lt;0.001) Conclusion Among STEMI patients undergoing PA, the prevalence of malnutrition and frailty are significantly higher in women than in men. NRI and frailty had an independent and complementary prognostic impact in women with STEMI. Kaplan-Meier and Cox survival curves Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None
