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…
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…
High levels of N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide are associated with ST resolution failure after reperfusion for acute myocardial infarction
2007
Background: B-type natriuretic peptide and the N-terminal fragment of its prohormone, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (Nt-proBNP), provide valuable prognostic information on short- and long-term mortality in patients with acute coronary syndrome Aim: To investigate the association between plasma NT-proBNP levels and ST-segment resolution (STR) after reperfusion in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods: Consecutive patients from the French regional RICO survey with STEMI who were treated by primary PCI or lysis <12 h were included. Blood sample was taken on admission to measure plasma NT-proBNP. Maximal ST segment elevation was measured on the sin…
The Free Oxygen Radicals Test (FORT) to assess circulating oxidative stress in patients with acute myocardial infarction
2010
International audience; Background and aim: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play an important role in the pathogenesis of many diseases including cardiovascular diseases. Several methods have been developed for the direct or indirect measurement of oxygen free radical and its by-products. The current study was designed to validate the new Free Oxygen Radicals Test (FORT) and to investigate the potential relationships between ROS and clinical or biological factors in male patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods: We analysed FORT values in samples from 66 patients with AMI. Results: FORT values ranged from 324 to 1198 FORT units, with a median value of 581 (494-754) FORT units.…
Temporal trends in prehospital management of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction from 2002 to 2010 in Cote d’Or: Data from the RICO registry (…
2012
Summary Background Myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation (STEMI) is a medical emergency requiring specific management, with the main aim of achieving reperfusion as quickly as possible. Guidelines from medical societies have defined optimal management, with proven efficacy on morbi-mortality. Aims Our study aimed to evaluate trends in practices between 2002 and 2010 in the emergency management of STEMI in a single French department, namely Cote d’Or. Methods All patients admitted with a first STEMI to one of the six participating coronary care units (private or public) in Cote d’Or since January 2001 were included in a prospective registry (obseRvatoire des Infarctus de Cote d’Or …
Prognostic value of fragmented QRS on a 12-lead ECG in patients with acute myocardial infarction
2013
Abstract Objective To investigate the determinants and the prognostic value of fragmented QRS (fQRS) after AMI. Patients and methods Prospective cohort of 307 consecutive patients with AMI. Main outcomes measured MACE (death plus non-fatal recurrent MI), hospitalization for an episode of heart failure, ventricular arrhythmia (VT or VF) at two years follow-up. Results On the serial 12-lead ECG recorded during the in-hospital stay, 162 (53%) had no fQRS ( no fQRS group ). 145 (47%) presented an fQRS, which was persistent in 108 (34%) patients ( persistent fQRS group ) and transient in 37 (12%) patients ( transient fQRS group ). Patients with a fragmented QRS (transient or persistent) were old…
Socio-professional status as a major determinant of disparities in cardiovascular outcomes: contemporary data on the prognosis inof manual workersmen…
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…
Impact of Fasting Glycemia on Short-Term Prognosis after Acute Myocardial Infarction
2007
The prognosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI), according to the new criteria for impaired fasting glucose (IFG) (FG 100-126 mg/dl), has not been evaluated.A total of 2353 patients with acute MI and surviving at d 5 after admission were analyzed for short-term morbidity and mortality. FG was obtained at d 4 and 5. Patients were classified as diabetes mellitus (known diabetes or FGor = 126 mg/dl), high IFG (110or = FG126 mg/dl), low IFG (100or = FG110 mg/dl), and normal fasting glucose (NFG) (FG100 mg/dl).Among the 2353 patients, 968 (41%) had diabetes mellitus, 262 (11%) had high IFG, 332 (14%) had low IFG, and 791 (34%) had NFG. Compared with NFG patients, 30-d cardiovascu…
Comparative epidemiology of stroke and acute myocardial infarction: the Dijon Vascular Project (DIVA)
2009
Despite a common pathophysiological mechanism (ie, atherosclerosis) and similar vascular risk factors, few reliable studies have compared the epidemiology of stroke and acute myocardial infarction (AMI).All first ever cases of stroke and AMI in Dijon, France (151 846 inhabitants) from 2001 to 2006 were prospectively recorded. The 30 day case fatality rates (CFRs) and vascular risk factors were assessed in both groups.Over the 6 years, 1660 events (1020 strokes and 640 AMI) were recorded. Crude incidence of stroke was higher than that of AMI (112 vs 70.2/100 000/year; p0.001). With regard to sex, the relative incidence of stroke compared with AMI was 0.88 (95% CI 0.60 to 1.29; p = 0.51) in w…
