Infarct-related artery and long-term mortality following recurrent ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Insights from a Polish nationwide registry - 08/12/22
Riassunto |
Background |
Recurrent ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (rSTEMI) can be attributed to the same (target-vessel, TV-rSTEMI) or different culprit vessel (non-target, nonTV-rSTEMI) compared with the first infarction. We hypothesized that long-term mortality after rSTEMI depends on the infarct-related artery (the same or different compared with the first STEMI).
Methods |
Using the Polish Registry of Acute Coronary Syndromes (PL-ACS) we retrospectively identified survivors of first STEMI treated with PCI who experienced rSTEMI. We divided rSTEMI into TV-rSTEMI and nonTV-rSTEMI. We compared clinical, angiographic, and procedural characteristics and utilized propensity score matching to adjust for baseline differences. Primary outcome was 1-, 3- and 5-year all-cause mortality.
Results |
Between 2003 and 2019 a total of 3,411 patients (mean age 63.7 years, 76% male) had rSTEMI, of whom 1,916 (56%) had TV-rSTEMI and 1,495 (44%) had nonTV-rSTEMI. Median time since first infarction was 716 days (100, 1,807). Patients with nonTV-rSTEMI had higher body mass index (27.2 vs 26.7 kg/m2, P = .041), more arterial hypertension (77.4 vs 73.7%, P = .015) and atrial fibrillation (4.8 vs 3.3%, P = .02), and lower left ventricular ejection fraction (43 [35, 50] vs 45 [38, 50]%, P <.001) compared with TV-rSTEMI. On coronary angiography nonTV-rSTEMI more frequently presented with Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction >1 flow (25.8 vs 15.7%, P < .001), multivessel disease (51.9 vs 40.8%, P =.002), culprit lesion located in circumflex artery (22.6 vs 5.6%, P < .001), and more frequently underwent stenting (88.8 vs 76.1%, P < .001) compared with TV-rSTEMI. There was no difference in unadjusted 1-, 3- and 5-year mortality between nonTV-rSTEMI and TV-rSTEMI. After propensity score analysis, 807 well-matched pairs of patients were selected. Adjusted 1-, 3- and 5-year mortality remained similar between nonTV-rSTEMI and TV-rSTEMI (14.7 vs 14.4%, P = .88; 23.6 vs 23.1%, P = .81; 30.0 vs 32.0%, P = .50 respectively).
Conclusions |
Our study shows overall low frequency of rSTEMI. Patients with nonTV-rSTEMI have different clinical and angiographic characteristics compared with TV-rSTEMI. No long-term mortality difference was observed between both groups.
