Risk factors of free wall rupture after acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction / 中国介入心脏病学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To discuss the risk factors of free wall rupture (FWR) in acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients. Methods We retrospectively reviewed all patients (n=1247) with STEMI hospitalized in CCU from January 2005 to July 2010. Results FWR occurred in 29 patients(2.3%). Of these 1247 patients, 128 (10.2%) patients received thrombolytic therapy, 623 (50.0%) patients underwent primary PCI. Compared to No-FWR group, FWR group has signiifcant differences in age (62.4±6.4 y vs. 66.6±8.3 y, P0.05), diabetes mellitu (55.2%vs. 23.5%, P=0.022), presence of heart failure on admission (Killip≥Ⅱ) ( 16.4%vs. 34.0%, P 100 mg/L) and thrombolytic therapy were independent risk factors of FWR. Conclusions STEMI patients with advanced age, Killip≥Ⅱ, hCRP and thrombolytic therapy were more vulnerable of FWR.
