Status of intra-aortic balloon pump application and related factors in Chinese patients with acute myocardial infarction / 中华心血管病杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To investigate the current status of application of intra-aortic balloon pump(IABP) and analyze the factors which might impact the application of IABP in patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated with cardiac shock in China.@*Methods@#In China Acute Myocardial Infarction (CAMI) Registry,a nationwide, multicenter(107 hospitals), prospective study, 26 592 patients with acute myocardial infarction were enrolled consecutively between January 1, 2013 and September 30, 2014. After excluding of 30 cases due to missing important data,26 562 cases were analyzed.The application status of IABP was analyzed and multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the factors related to IABP application.@*Results@#A total of 785(3.0%) patients with acute myocardial infarction received IABP implantation, and 381(49.9%) patients belonged to preventive application of IABP before primary percutaneous coronary intervention,and 6(0.8%) patients were complicated with mechanical complications.There were 118(15.0%) patients with cardiac shock received IABP implantation, which accounted for 12.0%(118/984) of all patients with cardiac shock.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the clinical independent factors of the decision of IABP insertion included dyslipidemia (OR=2.858, 95%CI 1.397-5.846, P=0.004),left ventricular ejection fraction (OR=0.977, 95%CI 0.961-0.994, P=0.009),usage of dopamine (OR=2.817, 95%CI 1.495-5.308, P=0.001), left main disease (OR=2.817, 95%CI 1.495-5.308, P=0.001), GRACE score (OR=1.006, 95%CI 1.000-1.011, P=0.034), receiving primary percutaneous coronary intervention (OR=4.508, 95%CI 1.673-12.146, P=0.003), teritiary hospitals (OR=2.562, 95%CI 1.498-4.384, P=0.001), and higher education of the patients (OR=2.183, 95%CI 1.056-4.509, P=0.016).@*Conclusions@#Among the Chinese acute myocardial infarction patients who received IABP implantation, nearly half application of IABP are preventive implantation before primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Only a few patients complicated with cardiac shock received IABP insertion. The clinical conditions, grade of hospitals, degree of education impact the decision of IABP insertion for the patients with acute myocardial infarction.
