Objectives: To evaluate the effects of occurrence and timing of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) on survival in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) who underwent emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods: We analyzed 1,956 consecutive patients with AMI with emergency PCI from 2014 to 2018. Patients with cardiac arrest events were identified, and their medical records were reviewed.Results: Patients were divided into non-cardiac arrest group (NCA group, n = 1,724), pre-revascularization cardiac arrest (PRCA group, n = 175), and post-revascularization SCA (POCA group, n = 57) according to SCA timing. Compared to NCA group, PRCA group and POCA group presented with higher brain natriuretic polypeptide (BNP), more often Killip class 3/4, atrial fibrillation, and less often completed recovery of coronary artery perfusion (all p < 0.05). Both patients with PRCA and POCA showed increased 30-day all-cause mortality when compared to patients with NCA (8.0 and 70.2% vs. 2.9%, both p < 0.001). However, when compared to patients with NCA, patients with PRCA did not lead to higher mortality during long-term follow-up (median time 917 days) (16.3 vs. 18.6%, p = 0.441), whereas patients with POCA were associated with increased all-cause mortality (36.3 vs. 18.6%, p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis identified Killip class 3/4, atrial fibrillation, high maximum MB isoenzyme of creatine kianse, and high creatinine as predictive factors for POCA. In Cox regression analysis, POCA was found as a strong mortality-increase predictor (HR, 8.87; 95% CI, 2.26–34.72; p = 0.002) for long-term all-cause death.Conclusions: POCA appeared to be a strong life-threatening factor for 30-day and long-term all-cause mortality among patients with AMI who admitted alive and underwent emergency PCI. However, PRCA experience did not lead to a poorer long-term survival in patients with AMI surviving the first 30 days.

Abnormal hemodynamics is thought to contribute to the increased risk of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) and mortality. However, few studies focused on patients without abnormal hemodynamics (defined as hypotension, intra-aortic balloon pump usage) and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF < 40%). Our study was to explore the impact of CIN on mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with relative stable hemodynamics. In this observational study, we included 696 patients with AMI undergoing PCI without reduced LVEF and abnormal hemodynamics. The end point was long-term, all-cause mortality. During the mean follow-up of 2.79 years, CIN was detected in 110 (15.8%) patients. The total all-cause mortality was higher in CIN group than that in non-CIN group (24% vs 3.4%, P < .001). In the multivariate Cox analysis, CIN was an independent predictor of worse outcomes (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]: 2.97, 95% confidence interval: 1.46-6.06, P < .001) and significantly associated with long-term mortality, so did renal insufficiency (adjusted HR: 4.40, P < .001) and use of β-blockers (adjusted HR: 0.33, P < .001). Among patients with AMI, CIN independently predicted long-term mortality following PCI, regardless of LVEF impairment and abnormal hemodynamics.

Aim: Our aim was to investigate the characteristics, treatment and prognosis of patients with myocardial infarction (MI) treated outside a cardiology department (CD), compared with MI patients treated at a CD. Methods: A cohort of 1310 patients diagnosed with MI at eight Swedish hospitals in 2011 were included in this observational study. Patients were followed regarding all-cause mortality until 2018. Results: A total of 235 patients, exclusively treated outside CDs, were identified. These patients had more non-cardiac comorbidities, were older (mean age 83.7 vs. 73.1 years) and had less often type 1 MIs (33.2% vs. 74.2%), in comparison with the CD patients. Advanced age and an absence of chest pain were the strongest predictors of non-CD care. Only 3.8% of non-CD patients were investigated with coronary angiography and they were also prescribed secondary preventive pharmacological treatments to a lesser degree, with only 32.3% having statin therapy at discharge. The all-cause mortality was higher in non-CD patients, also after adjustment for baseline parameters, both at 30 days (hazard ratio (HR) 2.28; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.62–3.22), one year (HR 1.82; 95% CI 1.39–2.36) and five years (HR 1.62; 95% CI 1.32–1.98). Conclusions: MI treatment outside CDs is associated with an adverse short- and long-term prognosis. An improved use of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and secondary preventive pharmacological treatment might improve the long-term prognosis in these patients.

OBJECTIVES To determine clinical outcome and to nd out the association between participation of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in cardiac rehabilitation programme. DESIGN A Prospective observational study. STUDY AREA : Department of Cardiology, Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research,Kolkata. PARTICIPANTS: Patients aged ≥18 years who underwent PCI due to AMI. OUTCOME MEASURES The outcomes were subsequent myocardial infarction, revascularisation, all-cause readmission, cardiac readmission, all-cause mortality and cardiac mortality. RESULT: The data of 1107 patients were included and 60.07%% of them participated in CR program. The risks of revascularisation, all cause readmission and cardiac readmission among CR participants were compared. The results of those analysis were consistent and showed that the CR participants had lower allcause mortality ,cardiac mortality,all cause readmission, cardiac admission. However no effect was observed for subsequent myocardial infarction or revascularisation. CONCLUSIONS: It was suggested CR participation may reduce the risk of all-cause mortality ,cardiac mortality, all cause readmission and cardiac admission.
