Frailty Tools for Assessment of Long-term Prognosis After Acute Coronary Syndrome

2020

Objective: To evaluate the 5 components of the Fried frailty phenotype (self-reported unintentional weight loss, physical activity questionnaire, gait speed, grip strength, and self-reported exhaustion) for long-term outcomes in elderly survivors of acute coronary syndrome. Methods: A total of 342 consecutive patients (from October 1, 2010, to February 1, 2012) were included. The 5 components of the Fried score and albumin concentration, as malnutrition index, were assessed before hospital discharge. Patients were followed up until April 2020 (median follow-up, 8.7 years). The end point was postdischarge all-cause mortality. Results: Mean ± SD age was 77±7 years and mean ± SD Fried score wa…

Stability and change of lifestyle profiles in cardiovascular patients after their first acute coronary event.

2017

Background Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Lifestyle and health behavior changes play an important role in the primary and secondary prevention of ACS recurrence. Changes in unhealthy lifestyles after an acute coronary event have been analyzed by considering separate behaviors individually, even though research on the healthy population has demonstrated that unhealthy behaviors tend to co-occur. Purpose The aim of this study was to identify lifestyle profiles of ACS patients and to explore their pathways of change for one year after their first coronary event by adopting a typological approach. Methods Two hundred and twenty-three patients (84% mal…

Tissue characteristics in non-culprit lesions during the acute coronary event and at ten months follow-up

2013

Introduction: It is not well established how the medication recommended in the guidelines will affect plaque compositional changes in non-culprit segments after STEMI. We hypothesized that the proportion of necrotic tissue in the non-culprit lesion in the culprit artery would decrease ten months after STEMI. Methods: In 63 consecutive STEMI patients the non-culprit segment in the culprit artery was analyzed with iMap intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) at the time of the index procedure and 10 months later. The non-culprit segment was identified as being 20mm proximal to the most stenotic culprit segment. All patients were recommended to receive the drug therapy outlined in the STEMI guidelines…
