Clinical characteristics and short-term outcomes in patients with elevated admission systolic blood pressure after acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction: a population-based study

چکیده
OBJECTIVE Prognostic value of lower admission systolic blood pressure (SBP) in patients with acute myocardial infarction has been confirmed, but the impact of elevated admission SBP on short-term outcomes has been evaluated only by a limited number of studies and they have reported conflicting results. The aim of our study was to investigate the characteristics and short-term outcomes in patients with elevated admission SBP after ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). DESIGN A population-based, observational study. SETTING The multicentre registry in China. PARTICIPANTS A total of 7510 consecutive patients with STEMI were registered. Patients were divided into three groups according to admission SBP: normal admission SBP (100-139 mm Hg), modestly elevated admission SBP (140-179 mm Hg) and excessively elevated admission SBP (≥180 mm Hg). The primary outcomes were 7-day and 30-day all-cause mortality, major adverse cardiac events (MACE) and bleeding rate. RESULTS Of 6591 patients, 4182 (63.5%) had normal admission SBP, 2187 (33.2%) modestly elevated admission SBP and 222 (3.4%) excessively elevated admission SBP. Patients with elevated admission SBP had a high-risk profile, such as were more likely to be older, with more concomitant cardiovascular morbidities, presenting with more events of anterior myocardial infarction and less reperfusion treatment. However, 7-day and 30-day all-cause mortality, MACE and bleeding rate were comparable among groups (all p>0.05). Survival curves and MACE curves were similar among groups (p=0.377 and 0.375, respectively). After multivariate adjustment, elevated admission SBP was not associated with increased risk of short-term death and bleeding, and MACE was comparable with normal admission SBP. CONCLUSIONS Although those with elevated admission SBP after STEMI were at a higher risk for cardiovascular events, they did not have poorer short-term outcomes compared with patients with normal admission SBP.

Background: There is conflicting data about prognostic implication of electrocardiographic (ECG) left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in patients with first non- ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). We aimed to examine the association of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) on admission electrocardiogram with adverse outcomes in patients with NSTEMI. Methods: In the present study, ...

Background and Objective: One of the most important advancements regarding the care of patients with acute myocardial infarction is the administration of anti-coagulation medicines (e.g., streptokinase). However, it must be noticed that this medicine requires rapid and timely administration. Moreover, Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) is increasingly used as a method of revascularization...

Introduction: No-reflow phenomenon in coronary vessels, manifested in some patients with reperfused acute myocardial infarction (MI), is associated with poor clinical and functional outcomes. Therefore, evaluation of predisposing risk factors can be helpful in risk assessment and identification of patients at higher risk. Herein, we aimed to study the predictive factors for the development of...
