Aim: To determine the clinical outcomes of patients who received bailout thrombectomy for primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Study Design: Cross-sectional/observational Place & Duration: Study was conducted at Cardiac Centre, Cardiology Department, Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) Islamabad from January 2020 to December 2020 (for one year). Methods: 200 hundred patients of both genders undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PPCI)for ST elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI) were analyzed in this study. All patients were divided into two groups. Group A contains 100 patients and received PPCI with bailout thrombectomy and Group B contains 100 patients and received PPCI alone. Informed written consent was taken. Outcomes such as mortality, re-infarction, heart failure, cardiogenic shock, renal impairment, excess bleeding, post procedure stroke and hospital stay were examined and compare between both groups. Results: In Group A there were 53% males and 47% females with mean age 56.45+10.88 years. In Group B 55% were males and 45% were females with mean age 58.35+9.23 years. In Groups A there were more diabetic patients 45% than Group B 32% (p-value 0.005), Group B had more smokers 60%. There was a significant difference between group A and B regarding family history of coronary artery disease 35% vs 20% (p=0.003). In Group A 3% patients were died and in Group B 2% patients were died with no significant difference. Group A patients had more renal impairment 9% vs 5% and stroke 3% vs 1% than Group B. Hospital stay was high in Group A patients 7.12+2.05 vs 5.34+1.02 days of Group B. Conclusion: It is concluded that patients received bailout thrombectomy for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) had high rate of comorbidities. There was no significant difference in term of mortality between both groups. However, patients with bailout thrombectomy had more renal impairment and post-procedure stroke.

Abstract Background The use of intravenous enoxaparin (LBWH) in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) was upgraded in the latest European Guidelines to a class IIa recommendation. Purpose The authors aim to compare safety and prognostic impact of LMWH versus unfractionated heparin (UFH) use in STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI. Methods Retrospective study of 3875 STEMI patients who underwent pPCI between October 2010 and September 2017 and were included in a national multicenter registry. Group A consisted of patients managed only with LMWH, and Group B patients were treated with UFH regardless of eventual LMWH associated exposure. The groups were compared according to their demographic, clinical and laboratory characteristics. The primary endpoint (PE) results from a composite which included: procedural failure (pPCI failure or bailout use of GPIIb/IIIa inhibitors), in-hospital mortality, re-infarction or major bleeding (according to the registry criteria). The secondary endpoint (SE) included: in-hospital major bleeding, need for red blood cell transfusion, or haemoglobin drop ≥2g/dL. A 1:1 propensity score (PS) analysis was performed according to demographic variables, medical history and previous medication, physical examination, electrocardiogram characteristics and left ventricular function, matching 1558 of the 3875 patients for later comparison between groups. Results Overall, Group A included 1083 (27.9%) and Group B 2792 (72.1%) patients. The mean age was 63±14 years, and 33.5% of the cohort were female. Despite the baseline characteristics heterogeneity between groups, this phenomenon was not observed after PS matching. The PE was more frequent in Group A, without reaching statistical relevance (15.6% vs 13.3%, p=0.07). The SE was superior in Group A (34.4 vs 29.4%, p=0.01). According to the PS matching analysis, there were no differences beetween groups in terms of the PE (13.9% vs 12.0%, p=0.28), while the SE kept more frequent among Group A (34.9% vs 28.5%, p=0.02) [Figure]. Propensity score: group comparison Conclusion In this study based on a national multicentric registry of STEMI patients, the use of LMWH was not associated with better in-hospital prognosis in terms of major cardiovascular events and was related with higher rates of bleeding related events in the scenario of pPCI, compared to UFH. According to these results, further studies are required to support the widespread use of LMWH in this clinical scenario.

Abstract Objective Reperfusion of ischemic myocardium generates oxidative stress, which itself can mediate myocardial injury. So, in this study, we investigated the level of oxidative stress markers and its association with clinical outcomes in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Results As indicated in the results, Post MI (Myocardial Infarction) heart failure was significantly higher in the group A (11% vs 4%, p = 0.047). Complete STR (ST-segment resolution) was observed to be significantly higher in the group B (36% vs 17%, p = 0.006). The SOD (Superoxide dismutase) and GPX (Glutathione peroxidase) levels were significantly higher in the group B compared to the other group (1547.51 ± 328.29 vs. 1449.97 ± 246.06, p = 0.019 and 60.62 ± 11.95 vs 57.41 ± 10.14, p = 0.042). The levels of GPX and SOD were shown to be directly related with complete STR and post PCI (Percutaneous coronary intervention)TIMI(Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction) flow 3 in the group A (p = 0.002 and p < 0.01, p = 0.005 and p < 0.02, respectively).

Complete Revascularisation

Background: More than half of the patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) have multi-vessel coronary artery disease. This is associated with worse outcomes compared with single vessel disease. Whilst evidence now exists to support complete revascularisation for bystander disease the optimal timing is still debated. This study aimed to compare clinical outcomes in patients with STEMI and multi-vessel disease who underwent complete revascularisation as inpatients in comparison to patients who had staged PCI as early outpatients. Methods and results: We conducted an observational cohort study consisting of 1522 patients who underwent primary PCI with multi-vessel disease from 2012 to 2019. Exclusions included patients with cardiogenic shock and previous CABG. Patients were split into 2 groups depending on whether they had complete revascularisation performed as inpatients or as staged PCI at later outpatient dates. The primary outcome of this study was major adverse cardiac events (consisting of myocardial infarction, target vessel revascularisation and all-cause mortality). 834 (54.8%) patients underwent complete inpatient revascularisation and 688 patients (45.2%) had outpatient PCI (median 43 days post discharge). Of the inpatient group, 652 patients (78.2%) underwent complete revascularisation during the index procedure whilst 182 (21.8%) patients underwent inpatient bystander PCI in a second procedure. Overall, there were no significant differences between the groups with regards to their baseline or procedural characteristics. Over the follow-up period there was no significant difference in MACE between the cohorts ( P = .62), which persisted after multivariate adjustment (HR 1.21 [95% CI 0.72-1.96]). Furthermore, in propensity-matched analysis there was no significant difference in outcome between the groups (HR: 0.86 95% CI: 0.75-1.25). Conclusions: Our study demonstrated that the timing of bystander PCI after STEMI did not appear to have an effect on cardiovascular outcomes. We suggest that patients with multi-vessel disease can potentially be discharged promptly and undergo early outpatient bystander PCI. This could significantly reduce length of stay in hospital.

Abstract Background Previous studies have demonstrated the feasibility of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) in carefully selected nonagenarians. Although current guidelines recommend immediate revascularization in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) it remains unclear whether PPCI reduces mortality in nonagenarians. The objective of this study is to compare mortality in nonagenarians presenting via the PPCI pathway who undergo coronary intervention, versus those who are managed medically. Methods and results A total of 111 consecutive nonagenarians who presented to our tertiary center via the PPCI pathway between July 2013 and December 2018 with myocardial infarction were included. Clinical and angiographic details were collected alongside data on all-cause mortality. The final diagnosis was STEMI in 98 (88.3%) and NSTEMI in 13 (11.7%). PPCI was performed in 42 (37.8%), while 69 (62.2%) were medically managed. A significant number of the medically managed cohort had atrial fibrillation (23.2% vs 2.4% p = 0.003) and presented with a completed infarct (43.5% vs 4.8% p = 0.001). Other baseline and clinical variables were well matched in both groups. There was a trend towards increased 30-day mortality in the medically managed group (40.6% vs 23.8% p = 0.07). Kaplan Meier survival analysis demonstrated a significant difference in survival by 3 years (48.1% vs 21.7% p = 0.01). This was the case even when those with completed infarcts were excluded (44.3% vs 14.6%, p = 0.01). Conclusion In this series of selected nonagenarians presenting with acute myocardial infarction, those undergoing PPCI appeared to have a lower mortality compared to those managed medically.

Introduction: With advancement in interventional cardiology an increase in the number of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedures has been noted in the elderly. However, the post procedure complication and mortality remain a challenge for the physicians. This study aimed to estimate the survival among men and women above 80 years of age who undergo primary PCI for treatment of ST elevation myocardial infarction. Methods: We analyzed the data collected prospectively from our cardiac center. The patients were followed up over 10 years. Most patient received stents followed by anti-platelet drugs and preventive measures to avoid further cardiac event. Kaplan Meier curves were generated to study survival post PCI (SPSS v2.2). Survival curves were developed to determine the influence of age, sex, type of stent and degree of coronary flow (TIMI 0-3) on post procedure survival. Results: From 2010 to 2019, total 502 patients >80 years received PCI (282 males, 218 females). The median survival in the male and female population were 2.16 yrs. (95% CI 1.66 - 2.66) and 2.36 yrs. (95% CI 1.72-2.99)(P= 0.18). Significant difference of around 1 year (2.7 yrs. octogenarian vs 1.6 yrs. nonagenarian, p<0.001, see figure 1) was found in post PCI survival between octogenarian and nonagenarian. However, the survival was longer in case of Bare metal stents (BMS)(n= 113) as compared to Drug eluting stents(DES)(n= 274) (2.7 yrs. vs. 2.0yr, p<0.001). Similarly, post procedure TIMI flow analysis shows maximum survival in TIMI 3 followed by TIMI 2 and TIMI 1 ensuring the significance of TIMI grade flow. Conclusions: Our results demonstrate that PPCI in elderly patients have a better outcome and longer survival in octogenarians than nonagenarians. Similarly, use of BMS could be considered over DES in population above 80 years of age irrespective of gender. No difference in post PCI survival in male and female population.

This article reviews optimum therapies for the management of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Optimum anti-thrombotic therapy includes aspirin, bivalirudin and the new anti-platelet agents prasugrel or ticagrelor. Stent thrombosis (ST) has been a major concern but can be reduced by achieving optimal stent deployment, use of prasugrel or ticagrelor, selective use of drug-eluting stents (DES) and use of new generation DES. Large thrombus burden is often associated poor outcomes. Patients with moderate to large thrombus should be managed with aspiration thrombectomy and patients with giant thrombus should be treated with glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors and may require rheolytic thrombectomy. The great majority of STEMI patients presenting at non-PCI hospitals can best be managed with transfer for primary PCI even with substantial delays. A small group of patients who present very early, who are at high clinical risk and have long delays to PCI, may best be treated with a pharmaco-invasive strategy.
