NT-proBNP during and after primary PCI for improved scheduling of early hospital discharge
BACKGROUND The Zwolle Risk Score (ZRS) identifies primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) patients at low mortality risk, eligible for early discharge. Recently, this score was improved by adding baseline NT-proBNP. However, the optimal timepoint for NT-proBNP measurement is unknown. METHODS PPCI patients in the On-Time 2 study were candidates. The ZRS and NT-proBNP levels on admiss...
متن کاملEfficacy of the radial approach for the performance of primary PCI for STEMI.
BACKGROUND Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is associated with increased bleeding complications, impacting clinical outcome. Transradial PPCI could decrease the risk of bleeding, but concerns about technical difficulties and longer reperfusion times limit its adoption. AIM AND METHODS This was a retrospective comparison of reperf...
متن کاملNew guidelines on primary PCI for patients with STEMI: changing insights
The 2013 recommendation was Class III (Harm), indicating that PCI should not be performed in a non-infarct artery at the time of primary PCI in patients with STEMI who are haemodynamically stable (Level of Evidence B). The new recommendation of 2015 is now Class IIb, demonstrating that PCI of a non-infarct artery may be considered in selected patients with STEMI and multi-vessel disease who are...
متن کاملCharacterization of the Average Daily Ischemic and Bleeding Risk After Primary PCI for STEMI.
BACKGROUND The risk of recurrent ischemic and bleeding events after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) may not be uniform over time, which may affect the benefit-to-risk ratio of guideline-recommended antithrombotic therapies in different intervals. OBJECTIVES This study sought to characterize the average daily ischemic rate...
متن کامل["Unsuitable for PCI..." Multivessel primary PCI. But for whom?].
Following the recent publication of the PRAMI trial, the appearance of the article entitled ‘‘Multivessel approach in ST-elevation myocardial infarction: Impact on in-hospital morbidity and mortality’’ by Santos et al. in this issue of the Journal could not be more timely. The study analyzed a population of patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) included in the Portuguese Regi...
