Effect of thrombus aspiration on myocardial reperfusion during mergency percutaneous coronary intervention / 中国综合临床

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effects of thrombus aspiration on postoperative clinical prognosis of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients with emergency percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods From September 2009 to January 2012,a total of 239 patients with STEMI undergoing emergency PCI (thrombus aspiration + PCI (n =118) and PCI (n =121)) were enrolled in this study.The angiographic and clinical results were retrospectively analyzed and compared between the two groups of patients.Results There were significant differences between the thrombns aspiration group and the PCI group on instant blood flow TIMI3 grade (106 (89.8％) vs.96 (79.3％) ; x2 =5.026,P ＜ 0.05),ST-segment depression rate at two hours after surgery (101 (85.6％) vs.90 (75.2％) ; x2 =5.500,P ＜ 0.05),ejection fraction within one week after surgery (68 (57.6％) vs.52 (43.0％) ; x2 =5.130,P ＜ 0.05),incidence of reinfarction during hospitalization (0 (0) vs.5 (4.1％) ; x2 =4.980,P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant statistical difference between the two groups on the average length of stay ((10.05 ± 5.40) d vs.(10.40 ± 5.03) d; t =-0.525,P ＞ 0.05),incidence of ventricular fibrillation during surgery (4 (3.4％) vs.3 (2.5 ％ ; x2 =0.174,P ＞ 0.05),heart failure during hospitalization (15 (12.7％) vs.18 (14.9％) ; x2 =0.235,P ＞0.05),Malignant arrhythmias (12 (10.2％) vs.15 (12.4％) ; x2 =0.296,P ＞ 0.05),and mortality rate (2 (1.7％) vs.5(4.1％);x2 =1.248,P ＞0.05).Conclusion Application of thrombus aspiration,which is a safe and effective way,may improve the clinical outcomes in acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients with emergency PCI.
