OBJETIVO: Evaluar el impacto del género sobre el pronóstico y el manejo en una red regional de atención al infarto agudo de miocardio con elevación del segmento ST. DISEÑO: Estudio observacional sobre una base de pacientes consecutivos recogida prospectivamente. Ámbito: Red catalana de atención al infarto agudo de miocardio con elevación del segmento ST. PACIENTES: Pacientes atendidos entre enero de 2010 y diciembre de 2011. INTERVENCIONES: Angioplastia primaria, fibrinólisis o manejo conservador. Variables de interés: Se compararon, según el género, intervalos de tiempo, proporción y tipo de reperfusión, mortalidad global y complicaciones intrahospitalarias y mortalidad global a 30 días y un año. RESULTADOS: De 5.831 pacientes atendidos, 4.380 tenían diagnóstico de infarto agudo de miocardio con elevación del segmento ST, siendo 961 (21,9%) de ellos mujeres. Estas tenían mayor edad (69,8±13,4 frente a 60,6±12,8 años, p < 0,001), mayor prevalencia de diabetes (27,1 frente a 18,1%, p < 0,001), Killip>I (24,9 frente a 17,3%, p < 0,001) y ausencia de reperfusión (8,8 frente a 5,2%, p < 0,001) que los hombres. Además, las mujeres presentaban mayores retrasos en la atención (primer contacto médico-balón: 132 frente a 122min, p < 0,001; inicio de síntomas-balón: 236 frente a 210min, p < 0,001), más complicaciones intrahospitalarias (20,6 frente a 17,4%, p = 0,031) y mortalidad intrahospitalaria, a 30 días y un año (4,8 frente a 2,6%, p = 0,001; 9,1 frente a 4,5%, p < 0,001; 14,0 frente a 8,3%, p < 0,001). Sin embargo, tras el análisis multivariado no hubo diferencias en mortalidad a 30 días y un año. CONCLUSIONES: A pesar del peor perfil de riesgo y el peor tratamiento recibido, las mujeres presentaron similares resultados a 30 días y un año que sus homólogos masculinos atendidos por una red de atención al infarto
OBJECTIVE: To assess the impact of gender upon the prognosis and medical care in a regional acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction management network. DESIGN: An observational study was made of consecutive patients entered in a prospective database. Scope: The Catalan acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction management network. PATIENTS: Patients treated between January 2010 and December 2011. INTERVENTIONS: Primary angioplasty, thrombolysis or conservative management. Variables of interest: Time intervals, proportion and type of reperfusion, overall mortality, and in-hospital complication and overall mortality at 30 days and one year were compared in relation to gender. RESULTS: Of the 5,831 patients attended by the myocardial infarction network, 4,380 had a diagnosis of acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction, and 961 (21.9%) were women. Women were older (69.8±13.4 vs. 60.6±12.8 years; P<.001), had a higher prevalence of diabetes (27.1 vs. 18.1%, P<.001), Killip class>I (24.9 vs. 17.3%; P<.001) and no reperfusion (8.8 vs. 5.2%; P<.001) versus men. In addition, women had greater delays in medical care (first medical contact-to-balloon: 132 vs. 122min; P<.001, and symptoms onset-to-balloon: 236 vs. 210min; P<.001). Women presented higher percentages of overall in-hospital complications (20.6 vs. 17.4%; P=.031), in-hospital mortality (4.8 vs. 2.6%; P=.001), 30-day mortality (9.1 vs. 4.5%; P<.001) and one-year mortality (14.0 vs. 8.3%; P<.001) versus men. Nevertheless, after multivariate adjustment, no gender differences in 30-day and one-year mortality were observed. CONCLUSIONS: Despite a higher risk profile and poorer medical management, women present similar 30-day and one-year outcomes as their male counterparts in the context of the myocardial infarction management network
