Cardiogenic shock is a very serious complication of acute myocardial infarction because of its prevalence (10-15% of cases) and the associated mortality of 80 to 90 per cent despite the availability of new inotropic drugs and intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation. The aim of this study was to show that revascularisation by percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) in acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock completely changes the prognosis. Between April 1985 and February 1988 emergency PTCA was carried out in 25 patients in cardiogenic shock defined as systolic hypotension (less than 80 mmHg) and clinical signs of peripheral or cerebral hypoperfusion. The patients were 21 men and 4 women with an average age of 62.7 +/- 6.7 years. The average delay before hospital admission was 122 mn (range 30 to 240 mn--40%--). External cardiac massage for ventricular arrhythmias or circulatory arrest was required in 56 per cent of cases and 20 per cent underwent balloon angioplasty during resuscitation. Five patients died in the catheter laboratory and 7 others during the hospital period. Thirteen patients (53%) survived and were discharged home. There have been no late deaths during the 24 month follow-up period; 46 per cent asymptomatic, 38 per cent in Class II and 16 per cent in Class III. Survival was better in the last 15 patients undergoing emergency angioplasty: 66 per cent compared with only 30 per cent in the first 10 patients in whom the decision to perform PTCA was then late, after failure of thrombolytic therapy.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Cardiogenic shock still remains a highly lethal complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). This study reviews our hospital experience in treating AMI complicated by cardiogenic shock to evaluate whether coronary angioplasty improves survival or not. We have treated 523 AMI patients from 1985 to 1990, and among these, 26 patients with AMI complicated by cardiogenic shock who underwent percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) compose the study group. In 16 patients, PTCA was successful (Groups S) and in 10 patients, unsuccessful (Group F). There were no statistical differences between the Groups with respect to clinical background, intraaortic balloon counterpulsation (IABP) or emergency coronary bypass graft surgery. Before PTCA, hemodynamic variables including cardiac index, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure and systolic blood pressure were similar in the 2 groups. After PTCA, cardiac index in Group S patients was better than in Group F patients (2.18 +/- 0.61 versus 1.62 +/- 0.65, p less than 0.05). Thirty day and 1 year survivals were also better in Group S than in Group F (30 day survival: Group S 56.2%, Group F 10%, 1 year survival: Group S 31.2%, Group F 0%, p less than 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that age under 75 years old, systolic blood pressure over 90 mmHg after PTCA and successful PTCA were independent predictors of 30 day survival (p less than 0.05). It was suggested that PTCA was an effective procedure to reduce mortality in patients with cardiogenic shock.  相似文献

Direct percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) was performed as the primary means of establishing reperfusion during acute myocardial infarction in 105 elderly patients (mean age +/- standard deviation 75 +/- 4 years) at a mean of 5.5 +/- 4.0 hours from symptom onset. Fifty-two patients (50%) had anterior infarctions, 70 (67%) had significant narrowing in greater than 1 vessel, and 12 (11%) were in cardiogenic shock. Primary success was achieved in 91% of the infarct-related arteries. Four patients with failed PTCA underwent emergency bypass surgery; 10 had early symptomatic reocclusion of the dilated vessel. There was 1 death acutely in the catheterization laboratory. The overall in-hospital mortality was 18%. Three-vessel coronary artery disease and cardiogenic shock on presentation were the strongest predictors of in-hospital death. Global ejection fraction improved from 54 +/- 13 to 61 +/- 15% (p less than 0.001). The 1- and 5-year survival rates, including in-hospital deaths, were 73 and 67%, respectively. It is concluded that direct PTCA is an effective means of salvaging ischemic myocardium during acute myocardial infarction in the elderly patient. It is associated with a high success rate and low complication rate. The short- and long-term survival in this high-risk group of patients are improved compared with survival rates in historical controls.  相似文献

We analyzed the long-term outcome of 198 patients after unsuccessful percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty. Forty-nine percent underwent emergency coronary artery bypass grafting surgery, 17% had elective bypass surgery, and 34% were treated medically. The in-hospital mortality rate was 4%, and myocardial infarction occurred in 36% of patients. Follow-up was completed in 100% of patients with a mean follow-up period of 35 +/- 22 months. Actuarial cardiac survival at 4 years was 97% in the emergency bypass surgery group, 100% in the elective bypass surgery group, and 86% in the medically treated group. Actuarial event-free survival (freedom from myocardial infarction, bypass surgery, coronary angioplasty, and cardiac death) at 4-year follow-up was 81% in 198 patients, 90% in the emergency bypass surgery group, 85% in the elective bypass surgery group, and 65% in the medically treated group. Results of multivariate analysis showed that emergency or elective bypass surgery after failed coronary angioplasty, normal or mildly impaired left ventricular function, and male sex were predictors of better outcome at 4 years.  相似文献

To achieve optimal myocardial revascularization and prevent rethrombosis of the infarct-related coronary artery, percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) was attempted in 18 patients with evolving acute myocardial infarction (9 anterior and 9 inferior) after administration of intracoronary streptokinase. PTCA was attempted 338 +/- 151 minutes after the onset of symptoms. After thrombolytic therapy, 11 patients had a severe residual stenosis and 7 a persistent total occlusion of the infarct-related coronary artery. PTCA was successful in 13 of 18 patients: in 9 of 11 with coronary stenoses and in 4 of 7 with total coronary occlusions. PTCA reduced the severity of the coronary lesion from 91 +/- 2% to 27 +/- 7% (p less than 0.001), and the transstenotic pressure gradient from 38 +/- 5 to 6 +/- 2 mm Hg (p less than 0.01). One patient in cardiogenic shock died during urgent coronary surgery after unsuccessful PTCA. After PTCA, all patients received heparin and antiplatelet agents. One patient had reinfarction with reocclusion of the infarct-related artery 5 days after PTCA. The other 12 patients had an uneventful hospital course, and cardiac catheterization before hospital discharge (8 to 17 days) revealed reocclusion of the infarct-related coronary artery in 3 and persistent patency in 9. Persistent patency of the infarct-related artery was associated with preservation of left ventricular end-diastolic volume (initial 86 +/- 6 ml/m2, follow-up 91 +/- 6 ml/m2), and improvement in left ventricular ejection fraction in some patients.  相似文献

This study was performed to define the 5 year clinical status of 427 patients who underwent percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) in 1981. Their mean age was 54 +/- 10 years (+/- 1 SD). Sixty-one percent had unstable angina, 23% had prior myocardial infarction, 86% had one-vessel disease, and 92% had normal left ventricular function. Sixty-seven percent of patients had left anterior descending artery stenosis. Angiographic success was achieved in 84% of patients. Coronary bypass surgery was required in 9.6% of patients, in 5.9% as an emergency procedure. There were no in-hospital deaths. Follow-up at 5 years was 100% complete. There were 15 late deaths (96.3 +/- 1.0% survival), including seven of cardiac cause (98.1 +/- 0.7% cardiac survival). Myocardial infarction occurred in 24 patients (94% freedom from myocardial infarction), coronary bypass surgery was required in 63 (84% freedom from bypass surgery), and 365 patients (85%) were asymptomatic at follow-up. At 5 years, 83 patients (20%) had required an additional PTCA. Unstable angina pectoris and proximal left anterior descending coronary artery stenoses were present in 162 patients. The overall survival and cardiac survival in this subset was 94.4 +/- 1.8% and 98.1 +/- 1.1%, respectively. The excellent survival and low event rates over 5 years in this population support the concept that PTCA is safe and effective for patients with symptomatic angina pectoris, single-vessel disease, and normal left ventricular function.  相似文献

Without revascularization, patients with non-Q-wave acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are predisposed to angina, recurrent AMI and cardiac death. Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) was performed in 68 patients with angina an average of 2.3 months after non-Q-wave AMI (41 anterior, 27 inferior). Mean diameter stenosis was 95%, with collateralized total occlusion of the infarct-related artery in 23 patients. PTCA was successful in 87% (59 of 68), with a mean residual stenosis of 30%. One patient had emergency bypass surgery. Long-term follow-up (average 17 +/- 10 months) was available for 58 of the 59 patients in whom PTCA was successful. Recurrent angina developed in 41% (24 of 58), but was relieved by repeat PTCA in 14, by late coronary artery bypass surgery in 4 and by medical therapy in 6. There was 1 nonfatal AMI, due to progressive disease in a nondilated vessel, and 1 noncardiac death At last follow-up, 46 of 58 patients (79%) were asymptomatic and fully active or employed. Thus, patients undergoing PTCA for angina after non-Q-wave AMI appear to have a relatively high clinical restenosis rate, but with repeat PTCA have a low incidence of subsequent angina, AMI and cardiac death.  相似文献

OBJECTIVES--To evaluate trends in referrals for emergency operations after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) complications; to analyse morbidity and mortality and assess the influence of PTCA backup on elective surgery. DESIGN--A retrospective analysis of patients requiring emergency surgical revascularisation within 24 hours of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty. PATIENTS--Between January 1980 and December 1990, 75 patients requiring emergency surgery within 24 hours of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty. SETTING--A tertiary referral centre and postgraduate teaching hospital. RESULTS--57 patients (76%) were men, the mean age was 55 (range 29-73) years, and 30 (40%) had had a previous myocardial infarction. Before PTCA, 68 (91%) had severe angina, 59 (79%) had multivessel disease, and six (8%) had a left ventricular ejection fraction of less than 40%. A mean of 2.1 grafts (range one to five) were performed; the internal mammary artery was used in only one patient. The operative mortality was 9% and inhospital mortality was 17%. There was a need for cardiac massage until bypass was established in 19 patients (25%): this was the most important outcome determinant (P = 0.0051) and was more common in those patients with multivessel disease (P = 0.0449) and in women (P = 0.0388). In 10 of the 19 cases a vacant operating theatre was unavailable, the operation being performed in the catheter laboratory or anaesthetic room. These 19 patients had an operative mortality of 32% and inhospital mortality of 47%, compared with 2% and 7% respectively for the 56 patients who awaited the next available operating theatre. Complications included myocardial infarction, 19 patients (25%); arrhythmias, 10 patients (3%); and gross neurological event, two patients (3%). The mean intensive care unit stay was 2.6 days (range 1 to 33 days) and the mean duration of hospital admission was 13 days (range 5-40 days). CONCLUSIONS--Patients undergoing emergency surgery after PTCA complications have a substantially increased inhospital mortality and morbidity. PTCA in this unit continues to require surgical cover. Delays in operating on stable patients in centres which operate a "next available theatre" backup policy may not differ from some units performing PTCA with offsite cover for PTCA complications. Particularly in the presence of multivessel disease, however, PTCA complications may be associated with the need for "crash" bypass and such patients are unlikely to survive hospital transfer. The proportion of patients requiring "crash" bypass has increased during the period reviewed because of the extent of disease in the emergency surgical group increased. These results indicate that surgery should not be denied to these patients.  相似文献

In 151 patients experiencing acute myocardial infarction, emergency coronary angioplasty was performed as primary therapy. Overall, angioplasty was successful in 132 patients (87%); it was successful in 91 (85%) of 107 patients with a totally occluded infarct-related artery and in 41 (93%) of 44 patients with a subtotally occluded infarct-related artery. After successful angioplasty, mean residual stenosis was 29% (range 0 to 70). Eighteen patients were in cardiogenic shock (12%) including four patients receiving cardiopulmonary resuscitation during the angioplasty procedure. Hospital mortality was 9%, with 7 of 13 deaths occurring in patients presenting with cardiogenic shock or intractable ventricular arrhythmia. Hospital mortality was 5% in patients with successful angioplasty versus 37% in those with unsuccessful angioplasty (p less than 0.001). In the immediate period after angioplasty, left ventricular ejection fraction was significantly lower for patients with lesions of the left anterior descending artery (34 +/- 10%) than for patients with lesions of the left circumflex or right coronary artery (43 +/- 11%). In patients with successful angioplasty, significant improvement in left ventricular ejection fraction averaged 13 +/- 12% (p less than 0.001) for those with lesions of the left anterior descending artery and 10 +/- 12% (p less than 0.001) for those with lesions of the left circumflex or right coronary artery. Repeat coronary angiography was performed in 85 (70%) of 121 patients who had successful angioplasty and survived hospitalization without requiring bypass surgery; restenosis was found in 26 (31%), and angioplasty was repeated in 22 patients, successfully in each.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Between May 1980 and July 1985, 70 patients underwent percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) for angina occurring 24 hours after and within 30 days of acute myocardial infarction (32 with Q-wave infarction and 38 with non-Q-wave infarction). One-vessel disease was present in 42 (60%) and multivessel in 28 (40%); the mean ejection fraction was 0.56 (greater than or equal to 0.50 in 77% of patients). PTCA was successful in 56 patients (80%) and after introduction of steerable dilating systems in February 1983 this rate became 86%. The success rate for complete occlusions was 76%. The interval from myocardial infarction to PTCA was similar in patients with successful dilation (12.7 +/- 8.1 days) and those without (13.4 +/- 8.0 days). PTCA failed in 14 patients (20%); 8 underwent emergency coronary artery bypass for acute occlusion and 4 of 6 patients whose lesions could not be crossed had elective bypass surgery. There was 1 operative death. No patient sustained a Q-wave infarction. Three patients had non-Q-wave infarctions after technically successful PTCAs. Mean follow-up was 27 months (6 to 67 months). Of the 56 patients successfully dilated, 14 (25%) had 15 cardiac events during follow-up: death (1), non-Q-wave infarction (2), repeat PTCA (7), coronary bypass (4) and recurrence of severe angina (1). The cumulative mortality was 3% and the reinfarction rate was 7% (no Q-wave reinfarctions). Forty-two (60%) of the 70 patients were free of complicating events acutely and during follow-up.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

OBJECTIVE--To assess the value of emergency surgical standby for percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty. DESIGN--Retrospective review of the major complications of coronary angioplasty in a regional cardiac centre. SETTING--All angioplasties were performed in the cardiac catheterisation laboratory of Wythenshawe Hospital with surgical standby in an adjoining operating theatre. PATIENTS--1262 vessels were dilated in 1032 patients (mean age 53 years) between 1984 and 1989. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES--In-hospital mortality from emergency surgical revascularisation after angioplasty; the rate of myocardial infarction and overall morbidity. RESULTS--Coronary angioplasty achieved primary success in 90% of cases. Thirty eight (3.7%) patients (five women (mean age 55.8) and 33 men (mean age 53.0] were referred for urgent surgical revascularisation--36 direct to operation and two within 24 hours. All patients survived surgery. Five of the 38 had had a previous angioplasty to the same vessel and one had had previous coronary artery grafts. Four of the 38 had an angioplasty for unstable angina. Eighteen had single, 13 double, and seven triple vessel coronary artery disease. The target vessel was the left anterior descending in 25, right coronary artery in nine, circumflex in three, and the left anterior descending and circumflex coronary arteries in one. Five required external cardiac massage on the way to the operating theatre; two of them had a left main stem occlusion. Four internal mammary artery and 60 reversed saphenous vein grafts were implanted (1.6 per patient). Complete revascularisation was achieved in 36 (94.7%) patients. Q wave myocardial infarction occurred in six (15.8%). The final outcome was: none dead, three patients with angina, one late death, one cerebrovascular accident, one late operation for a new left anterior descending lesion, two patients on diuretics with or without an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor. One orthotopic transplant was performed in a patient in whom cardiogenic shock developed after the left anterior descending coronary artery became occluded 72 hours after angioplasty. CONCLUSION--There was no surgical mortality and low morbidity among patients for whom immediate surgical cover was requested.  相似文献

Coronary bypass surgery was performed before hospital discharge on 82 (21%) of 386 consecutive patients enrolled in the Thrombolysis and Angioplasty in Myocardial Infarction (TAMI) multicenter trial of intravenous tissue plasminogen activator and coronary angioplasty for acute myocardial infarction. Time from infarct symptom onset to coronary bypass surgery was 7.3 +/- 1.9 hours for 24 patients operated upon on an emergency basis and 9.3 +/- 5.2 days for 58 patients having late in-hospital surgery. There were no operative deaths and five in-hospital deaths in the surgical group, all of which occurred in patients with preoperative cardiogenic shock. Although patients in the surgical group were older (59.7 +/- 10.4 years versus 54.9 +/- 10.2 years; p = 0.03), had more extensive coronary artery disease (42% three-vessel disease versus 11%; p = 0.001), and had a higher incidence of anterior wall myocardial infarction (48% versus 39%; p = 0.02), in-hospital mortality for the surgical group (6%) was similar to that in 301 patients not undergoing surgery (7%) in this trial. For patients discharged from the hospital, mortality at 1 year was 2.5% in the surgical group and 1.8% in patients not having coronary bypass surgery before hospital discharge. At a 1 year follow-up, there were no significant differences in the frequency of cardiac or noncardiac-related hospitalizations or in event-free survival between surgical and nonsurgical groups. The majority of patients in both groups considered themselves to be in excellent or good condition. Coronary bypass surgery can be performed with low morbidity and mortality rates in close temporal association to acute myocardial infarction.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Complications due to undetectable coronary artery disease are the major causes of morbidity and mortality in the surgical treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). The aim of our study was to evaluate the importance of significant coronary artery disease identification and the impact of coronary revascularization on early and late outcomes after surgical repair of AAA. METHODS: Between January 1994 and July 2004, 210 patients (204 males and 6 females, mean age 68 +/- 12 years) were candidates to elective surgical repair of AAA. Coronary angiography was performed in 122 patients (58%) in presence of angina symptoms, previous myocardial infarction, echocardiographic or scinti-scan evidence of myocardial ischemia. Coronary revascularization was performed in 83 patients (39.5%). The population was divided into two groups: coronary artery bypass graft/coronary angioplasty (CABG/PTCA) + AAA group (83 patients submitted to CABG surgery [n = 61], or PTCA [n = 22], for significant coronary artery disease before surgical repair of AAA), AAA group (127 patients without significant coronary artery disease, operated for AAA). Follow-up (90% complete) had a mean duration of 42 +/- 23 months. RESULTS: CABG/PTCA + AAA group compared to AAA group presented major symptoms of angina (p = 0.001), higher incidence of previous myocardial infarction (67 vs 10%, p < 0.0001), lower mean value of left ventricular ejection fraction (50 vs 54%, p = 0.01). Operative mortality was 0.95%, and was not related to any cardiac morbidity: operative mortality was observed in the AAA group (2 patients died of anossic cerebral damage and respiratory failure) and was absent in the CABG/PTCA + AAA group (p = 0.8). The overall 8-year survival in the AAA group and in the CABG/PTCA + AAA group was 80 +/- 11 vs 95 +/- 2.8%, respectively (p = 0.7). Freedom from cardiac late death and freedom from cardiac events (recurrence of angina, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure) were high in both groups (93 +/- 6.4 vs 97 +/- 2.3%, p = 0.6; and 91 +/- 6.6 vs 89 +/- 6.7%, p = 0.5, respectively). In the CABG/PTCA + AAA group symptoms for angina (p = 0.0002) and dyspnea (p < 0.0001) significantly improved during the follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Significant coronary artery disease was not negligible (39.5%) in patients candidates to surgical repair of AAA. Identification and correction of coronary artery disease prior to AAA surgery is the most important strategy to reduce the risk of vascular procedure. The beneficial impact of coronary revascularization on early and late outcomes is evident, in terms of satisfactory survival and freedom from cardiac adverse events. Therefore, coronary angiography is strongly suggested to optimize early and long-term results.  相似文献

The safety and efficacy of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) for stenoses involving ulcerative lesions were retrospectively studied. Seventy-seven patients (62 men and 15 women, mean age 62 +/- 10 years) representing 3.4% of 2,250 patients treated with PTCA during the period January 1, 1988 and June 30, 1990, had pre-PTCA stenoses defined as ulcerated. Twenty-eight (36%) of the stenoses were localized in the left anterior descending coronary artery, 9 (12%) in the left circumflex and 40 (52%) in the right coronary artery. During angioplasty, percent diameter stenosis was reduced from 73 +/- 14% to 22 +/- 13% and transstenotic gradient decreased from 48 +/- 18 to 12 +/- 6 mm Hg. Clinical success (freedom from angina at discharge without coronary bypass surgery, infarction or death) was achieved in 70 patients (90.9%). There were seven unsuccessful cases: three underwent elective coronary bypass surgery, one was managed medically, and three developed a major flow interrupting dissection during the procedure requiring emergency coronary bypass surgery. There were no deaths. At mean follow-up of 7.6 months, 45 of 61 patients (73.7%) remained asymptomatic. One patient needed an elective coronary bypass surgery and five patients had a successful repeat PTCA. In conclusion, PTCA for an ulcerated stenosis can be performed safely with a high primary success rate and a favorable early clinical course.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine the long-term outcome in unselected, consecutive patients after acute percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTCA) for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) complicated by cardiogenic shock. This involved a follow-up study from a prospectively conducted patient registry in a tertiary referral center. A total of 59 patients (10 female/49 male; median age 62 years (32-91)) with percutaneous transluminal cardiac interventions in primary cardiogenic shock were identified between January 1995 and January 2000. Twenty-two patients (37%) had been resuscitated successfully before intervention. The in-hospital mortality of shock patients was 36% (n=21, median age 68 (47-84)). The median follow-up of survivors was 18.1 (7-57.3) months, during which three further patients died (8%; two because of sudden cardiac deaths, one because of acute reinfarction). Achievement of thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow III after acute PTCA (84% in survivors vs. 38% in non-survivors; P<0.001) and the absence of the left main coronary artery (3% survivors vs. 29% non-survivors; P=0.003) as culprit lesion in patients with cardiogenic shock was strongly associated with an improved survival rate. A second cardiac intervention was performed in seven patients (18%). Overall functional capacity of shock survivors was good. At final follow-up, 80% of the survivors were completely asymptomatic. One patient had angina pectoris NYHA II, five patients dyspnoea NYHA class II. Exercise stress-test was performed in 24 of the 38 surviving patients, median exercise capacity was 100% (range 55-113%) of the age adjusted predicted value. In unselected patients with cardiogenic shock due to AMI, treatment with acute PTCA resulted in an in-hospital mortality of 36%, low late mortality and good functional capacity in long-term survivors. TIMI flow grade III after acute PTCA in patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock was strongly associated with an improved survival rate whereas the left main coronary artery as culprit lesion was associated with worse outcome.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Critically ill patients undergoing bypass surgery experience a higher mortality and morbidity. HYPOTHESIS: The study was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy and value of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) as a bridge to coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) in high-risk patients with refractory unstable angina or cardiogenic shock. METHODS: We present 11 seriously unstable patients with severe multivessel coronary artery disease undergoing culprit vessel PTCA. Angioplasty was performed not as a definitive procedure but rather as a bridge to surgical revascularization. All the patients had sustained at least one myocardial infarction prior to catheterization, all had refractory unstable angina, eight patients had only a single patent coronary artery, and five patients were in cardiogenic shock. RESULTS: Following PTCA, all patients enjoyed a stable in-hospital period. One patient died 12 weeks after successful PTCA while awaiting second CABG. Seven patients subsequently underwent CABG and are doing well. The remaining three patients were also advised to undergo CABG, but elected to continue medical management. CONCLUSIONS: Coronary angioplasty of the culprit vessel may play a role as a bridge to surgery in critically ill patients.  相似文献

Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) was evaluated as a means of reperfusion of the infarct-related coronary artery, and the results were compared with those of percutaneous transluminal coronary recanalization (PTCR). There were no difference in sex, age, infarct location and time from the onset to start of treatment between 135 patients with evolving acute myocardial infarction treated with PTCA (PTCA group) and 113 patients treated with PTCR alone (PTCR group). Fifty-nine patients in the PTCA group underwent PTCA following PTCR; the remaining 76 patients were without prior PTCR. Successful PTCA, defined as a 20% or more reduction in percent luminal stenosis diameter, was achieved in 123 (90%) of the 135 patients in the PTCA group. The reperfusion rate was 93% in the PTCA group and 77% in the PTCR group (p less than 0.01). Residual stenosis immediately after the treatment was 30 +/- 13% in the PTCA group and 70 +/- 16% in the PTCR group (p less than 0.01). In the PTCA group, three cases developed serious complications which were associated with angioplasty: coronary perforation, side branch occlusion resulting in cardiogenic shock and exacerbation of cardiogenic shock. The latter two patients died, however, there was no difference in hospital mortality rate: 6% in the PTCA group versus 11% in the PTCR group. At follow-up angiography performed four weeks after admission, reocclusion of the successfully recanalized arteries was observed in 3% of the PTCA group and in 14% of the PTCR group (p less than 0.01). Regional wall motion was evaluated by left ventriculography using a wall motion score system which consisted of six grades; from normal counted as 0, to dyskinesis counted as 5. There was no difference in the wall motion score between the successful PTCA group and the successful PTCR group (2.6 +/- 1.4 versus 2.8 +/- 1.4), but the scores of both groups were better than those of the non-recanalized group (3.4 +/- 1.0: p less than 0.01). In conclusion, PTCA and PTCR have the same effect on hospital mortality rate and regional wall motion, but PTCA has a higher reperfusion rate and a lower reocclusion rate than does PTCR. Although PTCA has a potential disadvantage inducing serious complications, it appears to be a useful treatment for acute myocardial infarction.  相似文献

Sixteen out of 293 (5.4%) procedures for percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, performed between 1985 and 1988, were complicated by acute closure and required emergency revascularization surgery. The injured vessel was the left anterior descending artery in 14 cases and the right coronary artery in 2 cases. All patients had persistent chest pain associated with ST-segment elevation in 14 cases and ST-segment depression in 2 cases. Two patients developed cardiogenic shock and were in cardiac arrest at the beginning of operation; one of these died immediately after the operation. Thus the overall mortality rate was 6.2%. Enzyme evidence of myocardial infarction (CPK-MB greater than 40 UI/I) occurred postoperatively in 8 patients (50%), but only the 6 patients (37.5%) with electrocardiographic evidence of myocardial necrosis (new Q-waves or loss of R-wave voltage) showed akinesis of the myocardium perfused by the occluded vessel at the echocardiographic examination performed two weeks after the operation. The occurrence of myocardial infarction was correlated with the degree of preoperative ischemia and hemodynamic deterioration. A collateral flow was present in 3 cases and none of these showed evidence of myocardial necrosis after the operation. Our results show that emergency bypass surgery for failed coronary angioplasty is less satisfactory than elective surgery, and has a higher mortality and myocardial infarction rate. Thus, the risk of emergency operation for complicated dilation must be considered when selecting of candidates for coronary angioplasty.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: The 30-day mortality in catheter-based reperfusion therapy in patients with acute myocardial infarction varies widely in the literature and only some factors, such as cardiogenic shock, are clearly associated with the risk. This non-randomized, single center study investigates the potential factors influencing the 30-day mortality in 586 consecutive patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction, treated with primary coronary angioplasty (PTCA). METHODS: In the whole series and in two subgroups (with and without cardiogenic shock) the clinical, angiographic and procedural variables were used to develop multivariate statistical models for the prediction of the endpoint. RESULTS: The overall 30-day mortality was 7.3%: 35.8 and 4.5% in patients with and without cardiogenic shock, respectively (p < 0.001). Independent predictors of the 30-day mortality included: a) in the entire series: shock, PTCA angiographic success, time to treatment, age, and coronary artery disease extension; b) in patients with cardiogenic shock: PTCA angiographic success, time to treatment, coronary artery disease extension, and use of abciximab; c) in patients without cardiogenic shock: time to treatment, age, and coronary artery disease extension. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction submitted to primary PTCA, the 30-day mortality rate is a highly predictable endpoint. The role of abciximab therapy and of other independent predictors varies according to the presence or otherwise of cardiogenic shock.  相似文献
