Les anti-agrégants plaquettaires au cours du syndrome coronarien aigu. Données des grandes études
2010
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of early death and morbidity in developed countries and is becoming a growing problem in many developing countries. Currently, anti-coagulants play a major role in the management of the acute phase in association or not with reperfusion strategies. The combination of clopidogrel and aspirin, in accordance with the results of large randomized trials, is the treatment of reference. However two new drugs, a thienopyridine (prasugrel), and a cyclo-pentyl-triazolo-pyridine (ticagrelor) have shown their interest in major studies in comparison with clopidogrel. As a result, several effective P2Y12 receptor antagonist anti-platelet agents are now availabl…
Predictors and prognosis for complex coronary lesions in patients with acute myocardial infarction
2007
Background We aimed to investigate the determinants and outcomes of multiple complex lesions (MCLs) on coronary angiography in patients with an acute myocardial infarction. Methods One thousand one hundred fifty-two consecutive nonselected myocardial infarction patients who underwent coronary angiography within 24 hours after admission were analyzed. A complex lesion was defined by the presence of thrombus, ulceration, irregular plaque, and flow impairment. Patients with ≤1 complex lesion were considered with single complex lesion (SCL), and patients with >1 complex lesions with MCLs. Results Multiple complex lesions were identified in 360 patients (31%). Patients from the MCL group were ol…

2005
The impact of metabolic syndrome after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has not yet been studied. In a population-based sample of patients with AMI, we sought to determine the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in patients with AMI, its impact on hospital outcomes, and to assess the relative influence of each of the components of the National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) Adult Treatment Panel (ATP) III definition of metabolic syndrome on the risk of death and heart failure.A total of 633 unselected, consecutive patients hospitalized with AMI were categorized according to the NCEP ATP III metabolic syndrome criteria (presence of/=3 of the following: hyperglycemia; triglyceride level/=…
Prise en charge au long cours par les anti-agrégants plaquettaires oraux après un syndrome coronaire aigu
2007
Cardiovascular disease is the primary cause of early death and morbidity in the industrialized world and is becoming a growing problem in many developing countries. Coagulation inhibitors play a major role in the management of the acute phase of ACS whether in association with reperfusion strategies or not. Currently, and in accordance with the results of major randomised studies, for medium and long-term management, the association of Clopidogrel and aspirin is the treatment of choice. However, despite the recognised benefits of this therapeutic strategy and above all the recommendations of learned societies, which have placed this bi-therapy in class I, according to national and internati…
Glucose insulin potassium infusion improves systolic function in patients with chronic ischemic cardiomyopathy
2002
Objective: We assessed the effects of glucose–insulin–potassium (GIK) by echocardiography in stable patients with ischemic dysfunction. Methods: Twelve male patients with stable coronary disease (SCD) and ejection fraction (EF) <45% were studied for systolic function. GIK (glucose 30%, 300 insulin units and KCl 6 g/l) was infused at 1 ml/kg per h over 20 min. Hemodynamic and echocardiographic measurements were recorded at rest (T0), at the end (20 min) of GIK infusion (T + 20), 20 and 40 min after the end of the infusion (T + 40 and T + 60). Results: At T + 20, a significant decrease in WMSI (wall motion score index) was observed compared with T0 (2.16±0.14 vs. 2.30±0.16: P<0.05). An increa…
0197: Angiographically visible distal embolization is not linked with culprit lesion but with clinical characteristics
2016
Despite the recent improvements in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), angiographically visible distal embolization (AVDE) complicates 6 to 18% of ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated with PCI, and is associated with poor clinical outcomes. Culprit lesion characteristics have been proved to be the main predictive factor of AVDE. But data regarding clinical characteristics predicting AVDE are lacking. We aimed to identify predictors of AVDE complicating PCI in STEMI management. 769 consecutive patients admitted for STEMI who underwent PCI were included. Clinical, angiographic and therapeutics characteristics were assessed for each patien. AVDE was defined as an abrupt ves…

Prognostic value of ST-segment resolution after rescue percutaneous coronary intervention. Data from the RICO survey
2008
Objectives: The goal of the present study was to test the impact of ST segment resolution (STR) after rescue percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on the short-term prognosis. Background: The prognostic value of STR after rescue PCI for acute ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains undetermined. Methods: From the French regional database, we analyzed 168 consecutive patients with STEMI and failed lysis, defined by <50 percent STR, who underwent rescue PCI. Patients were classified into two groups according to the degree of STR from the maximal ST-elevation measured on the single worst ECG lead before lysis and after rescue PCI: the without STR group (<50% STR) vs. the with STR…

2013
Introduction: Over the last decade in France, the early prognosis after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has markedly improved. However, recent work suggests persistent socioeconomic disparities in outcomes after AMI. From a regional population-based study, we analyzed the prognosis in manual workers after AMI. Patients: Patients recorded in the ObservatoiRe des Infarctus du myocarde de Cote d'Or (RICO) between 2001 and 2011, < 65 y, with a current professional activity and follow-up at one year. Socio-professional categories (SPC) were collected according to INSEE definition. The primary endpoint was combined mortality and hospitalization for heart failure. Results: Among the 1671 patient…
015: Relation between platelet activation and inflammation indexes measured on admission and new onset atrial fibrillation in patients with acute myo…
2013
ObjectivePlatelet activation is present in atrial fibrillation (AF), but there is some debate whether this is due to AF itself and/or to underlying cardiovascular diseases. We aim to determine the association between a marker of platelet reactivity (mean platelet volume (MPV)) and systemic inflammation (CRP) measured on admission, and new onset episode of AF in patients with MI.Patients and methodsProspective cohort of 4994 consecutive patients with AMI. Patients with paroxysmal or persistent AF were excluded.Results426 (8.5%) patients were diagnosed with a new onset of AF during the in-hospital-stay (mean stay 3±2 days). These patients were older (75 vs 65, p<0.001), predominantly male, an…

2016
Aspiration thrombectomy during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (p-PCI) in ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has been proposed to restore myocardial reperfusion. But important controversies remain concerning the usefulness of thrombectomy to improve this perfusion. Our objective was to evaluate the impact of manual thrombectomy on the occur-rence of angiographically visible distal embolization (AVDE) during p-PCI in STEMI. 346 consecutive patients admitted for STEMI who underwent p-PCI and thrombectomy were included. Clinical, angiographic and therapeutics characteristics were assessed. AVDE was defined as an abrupt vessel closure occurring at any point during the PCI pro…
