ABSTRACT
INTRODUÇÃO: A intervenção coronária percutânea cresceu de modo expressivo nas últimas décadas. Entretanto, relatos de resultados imediatos e a longo prazo desse procedimento em instituições brasileiras são esporádicos e restritos a alguns centros. A presente proposta objetiva descrever um sistema nacional para a avaliação dos indivíduos tratados por intervenção coronária percutânea no Brasil. Método: O Registro ICP-BR foi constituído por meio de rede informatizada para a captação de dados, via web, sobre angioplastias coronárias realizadas no dia a dia da cardiologia intervencionista, sem critérios de exclusão. Em sua fase piloto, 8 centros nacionais foram selecionados para a coleta inicial de dados. Relatamos o perfil clínico e a evolução intra-hospitalar dos primeiros pacientes incluídos. Resultados: De março de 2009 a dezembro de 2009, foram incluídos 1.249 pacientes na base de dados. No total, 60 por cento foram tratados pelo Sistema Único de Saúde, 38 por cento por planos de saúde e 2 por cento eram pagantes. A média de idade era de 63,7 + ou - 11,3 anos, 36 por cento eram diabéticos, 12 por cento tinham cirúrgia prévia e 27 tinham angioplastia prévia. À admissão, 39 por cento eram estáveis e 18 por cento tinham infartro com supradesnivelamento do segmento ST. Ultrassom intracoronário...
BACKGROUND: Percutaneous coronary intervention has grown dramatically in recent decades. However, reports of immediate and long-term results of this procedure in Brazilian institutions are sporadic and limited to some centers. This study is aimed at describing a national system to evaluate patients treated by percutaneous coronary intervention in Brazil. METHODS: The ICP-BR Registry was established by a computerized network for data capture on coronary angioplasties performed in day-to-day interventional cardiology, without exclusion criteria. In the pilot phase 8 national centers were selected for the initial data collection. We report the clinical profile and in-hospital evolution of the first patients included. RESULTS: From March 2009 to December 2009, 1,249 patients were included in the database. In total, 60% were treated by the Unified Health System, 38% by health insurance plans and 2% were private patients. Mean age was 63.7 ± 11.3 years, 36% were diabetic, 12% had prior surgery and 27% prior angioplasty. Upon admission, 39% were stable and 18% had ST elevation myocardial infarction. Intracoronary ultrasound or fractional flow reserve was performed in 2.8% cases. Stents were used in 93% of procedures, and drug-eluting stents in 16.2% of the patients. Mortality was 0.2% in stable patients, 2.4% in patients with acute coronary syndromes without ST elevation, 6.1% in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction and 3.6% in those with anginal equivalent. CONCLUSIONS: We describe the development and implementation of a computerized system to collect detailed data on percutaneous coronary intervention procedures in Brazil. Given the inclusive unrestricted character (all-comers) and prospective follow-up of patients, this data capture and recording system may contribute decisively to profile percutaneous coronary intervention in our country.
