MI in a community hospital Setting

Background
• Coronary heart disease is the leading cause of death
in the United States, with myocardial infarction a
common manifestation of this disease.
• Of all patients having a myocardial infarction, 25 to
35% die before receiving medical attention, most
often from ventricular fibrillation. For those who
reach a medical facility, the prognosis is
considerably better and has improved over the
years: in-hospital mortality rates fell from 11.2% in
1990 to 9.4% in 1999
Background
• In 2006, approximately 1.2 million Americans
sustained a myocardial infarction. Of these, two
third had a myocardial infarction without STsegment elevation
Background
• Randomized trials have shown that a routine
invasive strategy is beneficial in high-risk
patients with acute coronary syndromes.

Background
• In patients with myocardial infarction with ST-segment
elevation, in which the infarct-related artery is usually
occluded and there is ongoing transmural ischemia, it is
well established that the earlier primary percutaneous
coronary intervention can be performed, the lower the
mortality.
• By contrast, in patients with acute coronary syndromes
without ST-segment elevation (including unstable
angina and myocardial infarction), the culprit artery is
often patent, there is usually no ongoing transmural
ischemia, and the patient may have a good response to
initial medical treatment.
Background
• Although meta-analyses of previous
randomized trials that compared an invasive
strategy with a conservative strategy in patients
with acute coronary syndromes have shown a
benefit for an invasive strategy, the timing of
angiography in the invasive-strategy group of
these previous studies ranged from as early as
19 hours after randomization in one large trial
to as late as 96 hours in another large trial.

Background
• Given this wide variation in the timing, there
remains substantial uncertainty regarding the
optimal timing for intervention in such patients.
• Small, randomized trials comparing early
intervention with delayed intervention have
generated conflicting results.
Background
• Although some observational analyses have
suggested that earlier intervention, as compared
with delayed intervention, may reduce events,
others have suggested that outcomes appear to
be similar between the two approaches.
• Also, there has been a suggestion of a hazard
associated with routine early intervention.
Study Objective
• Primary endpoint:
-Is early revascularization better than delayed
revascularization or Medical therapy alone in
reducing in hospital mortality in Patients with
non ST elevation MI in a community care
setting?
Secondary endpoint
• What is the relative mortality of NSTEMI
patients undergoing early revascularization vs
delayed revascularization vs medical therapy
alone?
• What is the relative length of hospital stay in
the three groups studied?
• What percentage of coronary angiography
patients actually underwent intervention (PCI
or CABG)?
Methods
• Retrospective Data Analysis of patients at
Mercy Hospital who have documented non ST
elevation MI from June 2008 to June 2009
• Institutional Review Board approval through
the Catholic Health System
• 383 out of 591 patients reviewed were enrolled
in the study after meeting the inclusion
criteria
Inclusion criteria
• Based on ICD Coding 410.71
• Patients with non ST elevation MI with chest
pain at rest, lasting > 30 minutes and nonresponding to sublingual nitroglycerin tablets in
addition to elevated troponins greater than or
equal to 0.1.
Exclusion criteria
• Patients with ST elevation MI not fulfilling the
above criteria.
• Patients with MI not fulfilling the above
inclusion criteria
Analysis of Data
• Mortality odds ratios used for the comparison
of proportion of deaths in each arm (primary
end point).
• Length of Stay comparison evaluated by mean
number of days along with 95% confidence
interval standard deviations.
• paired t-test with a p-value of <0.05 deemed
statistically significant

Results
• Secondary Outcome
– Statistically significant difference in hospital length
of stay in patients treated with re vascularization
versus patients treated conservatively
– Statistically significant difference in hospital length
of stay in patients treated with early
revascularization versus patients treated with
delayed revascularization.
– Statistically significant difference in hospital length
of stay in patients >65 years treated with
revascularization versus patients treated
conservatively.
Conclusion
Revascularization offers benefit in reducing short
term mortality over medical therapy alone
Benefit is more pronounced in elderly high risk
male patients.
Immediate catheterization and intervention does
not offer a benefit over initial medical
stabilization followed by delayed catheterization
and intervention
