RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The radial artery became preferable access for percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). The latest European Society of Cardiology guidelines strongly recommended transradial access in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Though, in a significant portion of the coronary artery, invasive procedure crossover to femoral is necessary. AIMS: This study aimed to determine the ratio, risk factors, and periprocedural outcomes of crossover from radial to femoral access during PCI in a contemporary STEMI registry. METHODS: Based on data from the Polish registry ORPKI, we analyzed 90245 patients with a diagnosis of STEMI that were intended to be treated invasively via transradial access between 2014 and 2019. RESULTS: In 1484 (1.6 %) individuals, a switch to femoral access was necessary during the procedure. The most important independent predictors of vascular crossover were female sex, previous coronary artery bypass graft, class 3 and 4 of the Killip scale, left main disease, as well as any complications during coronary angiography. In that cohort, the risk of bleeding at the puncture site was over 20-fold higher. Major disparities in periprocedural outcomes (death during procedure, cardiac arrest during PCI, Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) after PCI, and no-reflow) between these groups resulted from disparities in initial characteristics, and they were not associated with crossover itself. CONCLUSIONS: Even though the risk of crossover to femoral is currently low, it appears to be indispensable to sustain operators' experience both in radial and femoral approaches to achieve the best outcomes in these patients.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Acute myocardial infarction (MI) is commonly associated with ischemic abnormalities on electrocardiography (ECG). However, a significant proportion of patients present with no ischemic changes (NIC), and their baseline characteristics and management differ considerably from those with other ECG patterns. In the era of rapid troponin assays, the exact prognostic effects of normal ECGs remain unclear. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to compare the outcomes of patients with MI without ischemic changes and those with other ECG patterns. METHODS: Between 2012 and 2018, 155,073 patients with MI were enrolled in the prospective nationwide Polish Registry of Acute Coronary Syndromes (PL-ACS). The patients were assigned to one of the following groups: NIC, ST-segment elevation (STE), ST-segment depression (STD), T-wave inversion (TWI), and other ST-T abnormalities (STT). RESULTS: The NIC group accounted for 9.56% of all patients. The in-hospital risk of death was lower in the TWI group than in the NIC group. In the STE, STD, and STT groups, the short-term results were substantially worse. During the 12-month observation period, TWI had the best prognosis. The worst long-term prognoses were associated with STT and STD. The outcomes of the STE and NIC groups were similar (12-month death rate 9.0% vs. 8.7%, respectively; P=0.534), despite the fact STE was an independent predictor of 12-month prognosis. CONCLUSIONS: The prognosis of patients with MI and NIC is not as favorable as previously thought. Their long-term outcomes were equal to those of the TWI and STE MI groups.

RESUMO

AIMS: Assessment of the diversity in the no-reflow population after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) due to ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Are there any gender-related differences? MATERIAL AND METHODS: Analysis of 1063 STEMI patients with Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) grade 0 or 1 following pPCI. The study group consisted of 685 patients with TIMI grade 0 and of 378 patients with TIMI grade 1. We analyzed clinical characteristics, in-hospital mortality and 2-year follow-up in both groups. RESULTS: Among women with the TIMI grade 1 an atrial fibrillation, tachycardia and impaired ejection fraction were more common than in men. The vessel responsible for myocardial infarction was most commonly the left anterior descending (LAD) in women, whereas the right coronary artery (RCA) in men. These differences were not observed in group with TIMI grade 0. We observed a higher incidence of in-hospital death in the population with TIMI grade 0 compared with TIMI grade 1 (21.9% vs 17.2%; p 0.0189). In the TIMI grade 1 group there was significantly higher incidence of in-hospital mortality in women compared to men (13.2% vs 22.7%; p 0,0159). Among women with postprocedural TIMI grade 0 in all periods of long-term follow-up the mortality was significantly higher compared to men (9.5% vs 17%; p 0,0111; 11.8% vs 19.7%; p 0.0139 and 16.7% vs 23.9%; p 0.043 for 6-,12-months and 2-years of follow up respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with no-reflow phenomenon in infarct related artery after pPCI constitute a more diverse group than previously thought. Some differences are most likely gender-specific. The female sex might have an adverse effect on in-hospital mortality in case of TIMI grade 1 and on the long-term prognosis among patients with TIMI grade 0.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Arterial cannulation is inherently associated with a risk of vascular complications including pseudoaneurysm (psA) that are encountered in both radial and femoral artery access. Among various methods of treatment of pseudoaneurysm the most popular are: watchful waiting for a spontaneous resolution, ultrasound-guided compression, ultrasound-guided thrombin injection (UGTI) and surgical treatment. In many previous reports nonsurgical methods appeared to be effective in most cases. AIM: To evaluate the incidence, characteristics as well as treatment scheme of iatrogenic pseudoaneurysms in a single high-volume cardiovascular intervention center. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study is a prospective analysis of femoral artery and radial artery pseudoaneurysm cases in a 6-year period (2015-2020) in Swietokrzyskie Cardiology Centre in Kielce, Poland. Analysis of baseline characteristics, treatment and outcomes of all pseudoaneurysm cases was performed. RESULTS: Among a total number of 7268 cardiovascular procedures, with 49.2% being of the radial approach, we diagnosed 113 cases of psA. Global prevalence of femoral artery pseudoaneurysm was 1.29% and that of radial artery pseudoaneurysm was 0.30%. Only 2 patients with femoral puncture were primarily qualified for surgical treatment due to large size of the pseudoaneurysm. The vast majority of patients underwent successful nonsurgical therapy with the major predominance of the UGTI procedure. Effectiveness of the first thrombin injection was as high as 90% in RPA and 85% in FPA, whereas all of the consecutive attempts were successful. CONCLUSIONS: UGTI is nowadays a very effective and safe method of iatrogenic pseudoaneurysm treatment that prevents further necessary surgical procedures.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Dynamic changes both in clinical profile and treatment strategy of non ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) patients have been observed recently. The exact impact of them on prognosis in a wide national population remains unclear. AIM: To evaluate the impact of treatment advances between 2005 and 2014 on the outcomes of NSTEMI cases. MATERIAL AND METHODS: NSTEMI patients from the Polish Registry of Acute Coronary Syndromes (PL-ACS) were included to the analysis. The mortality rate in a hospital observation as well as in 12-month follow-up was evaluated. RESULTS: The frequency of diabetes, hypertension, prior coronary artery interventions (especially percutaneous coronary intervention) raised. A frequency of invasive procedures increased remarkably (coronary angiography from 35.8% to 90.7%; p < 0.05 and percutaneous coronary intervention from 25.7% to 63.6%; p < 0.05). The usage of P2Y12 - inhibitors raised substantially from 56% to 93%; p < 0.05. In-hospital mortality decreased by fifty percent (in women from 6.6% to 3.3%; p < 0.001 and in men from 4.9% to 2.5%; p < 0.001, respectively). Similarly, 12-month mortality decreased up to one third (in women from 21.6% to 15.1%; p < 0.001 and in men from 17.8% to 12.8%; p < 0.001, respectively). Invasive strategy appeared to be the strongest factor decreasing mortality. Into in-hospital observation it reduces triple mortality risk whereas in 12-month follow up twice. Using propensity score matching analysis the impact of the treatment improvements on relative risk reduction was estimated on over 60%. CONCLUSIONS: In last decade the outcomes of NSTEMI in Poland improved substantially. The predominant impact on it had a routine invasive strategy.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Type 1 diabetes in the paediatric population is becoming a serious social problem affecting an increasing number of families with small, dependent children. Polish educational institutions are not prepared to provide care for students with diabetes. There are no nurses who, by law, are responsible for taking care for diabetic children. Teachers are not trained to provide care for pupils with diabetes and there is no system of obligatory, standardized training in this field. AIM: The aim of the study was to examine parents' opinions of the quality of care for diabetic students in educational institutions and compare the results obtained in 2013 and 2020. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The research, in the form of a questionnaire containing closed and open questions, was conducted in 2013 (n = 602) and 2020 (n = 604). RESULTS: There has been a slight positive change in providing the right care for children with type 1 diabetes in school facilities. In 2013 parents rated the quality of diabetic care as: bad - 13%, insufficient - 68%, sufficient - 14%, good - 5%, and in 2020 as: bad - 11%, insufficient - 54%, sufficient - 25.5%, good - 10.5%. However, the problem of the lack of appropriate legal regulations and absence of nurses in educational institutions has deepened. Systematic training of staff financed from public funds has still not been provided. CONCLUSIONS: It is necessary to solve the problem systematically, introduce mandatory, standardized training, clarify the responsibilities of teachers taking care of children with diabetes, introduce appropriate legislative changes and regulate the currently omitted preschool children.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Both unstable angina and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) are still classified together in non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndromes despite the fact they substantially differ in both clinical profile and prognosis. The aim of the present study was to evaluate contemporary clinical characteristics and outcomes of unstable angina patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in comparison with stable angina and NSTEMI in Swietokrzyskie District of Poland in years 2015-2017. METHODS: A total of 7187 patients after PCI from ORPKI Registry (38% with diagnosis of unstable angina) were included into the analysis. Impact of clinical presentation (unstable angina, stable angina, NSTEMI, STEMI) on three-year outcomes were determined. RESULTS: Unstable angina patients were older than stable angina but younger than NSTEMI individuals. In unstable angina group, the percentage of previous myocardial infarction (MI), PCI or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) was the highest among all analyzed groups. In three-year observation, the risk of death as well as MI and MACE in unstable angina after PCI was higher than stable angina angina but considerably lower than in the NSTEMI group. Multivariate analysis confirmed that prognosis in NSTEMI was substantially worse in comparison with unstable angina [relative risk (RR) 1.365, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.126-1.655, P = 0.0015]. On the contrary in unstable angina and stable angina patients, the impact of diagnosis on mortality risk was similar (RR 1.189, 95% CI: 0.932-1.518, P = 0.1620). Parallel results were observed in respect of MI and MACE. Independent predictors of death or MACE were: age, kidney disease, hypertension, diabetes, previous stroke or previous PCI. CONCLUSION: Three-year prognosis in unstable angina was considerable better in comparison with NSTEMI. On the contrary, after adjustment for baseline differences, the outcomes (death, MI, MACE) in unstable angina and stable angina patients were comparable.

RESUMO

A case of a 64-year-old male with multiple cardiovascular disease risk factors and non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction complicated by recurrent stent thrombosis is presented. Percutaneous coronary angioplasty with bare metal stent implantation was performed due to critical stenosis of the left circumflex coronary artery. The recovery was complicated by two episodes of stent thrombosis on the 4th and 10th day of in-hospital stay, both treated by subsequent percutaneous coronary interventions. Our hypothesis of resistance to antiplatelet therapy was confirmed by an in vitro test.
