Background— Acute coronary occlusion is the leading cause of cardiac arrest. Because of limited data, the indications and timing of coronary angiography and angioplasty in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest are controversial. Using data from the Parisian Region Out of hospital Cardiac ArresT prospective registry, we performed an analysis to assess the effect of an invasive strategy on hospital survival. Methods and Results— Between January 2003 and December 2008, 714 patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest were referred to a tertiary center in Paris, France. In 435 patients with no obvious extracardiac cause of arrest, an immediate coronary angiogram was performed at admission followed, if indicated, by coronary angioplasty. At least 1 significant coronary artery lesion was found in 304 (70%) patients, in 128 (96%) of 134 patients with ST-segment elevation on the ECG performed after the return of spontaneous circulation, and in 176 (58%) of 301 patients without ST-segment elevation. The hospital survival rate was 40%. Multivariable analysis showed successful coronary angioplasty to be an independent predictive factor of survival, regardless of the postresuscitation ECG pattern (odds ratio, 2.06; 95% CI, 1.16 to 3.66). Conclusions— Successful immediate coronary angioplasty is associated with improved hospital survival in patients with or without ST-segment elevation. Therefore, our findings support the use of immediate coronary angiography in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest with no obvious noncardiac cause of arrest regardless of the ECG pattern.Background—Acute coronary occlusion is the leading cause of cardiac arrest.

BACKGROUND Although epinephrine is essential for successful return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), the influence of this drug on recovery during the post-cardiac arrest phase is debatable. OBJECTIVES This study sought to investigate the relationship between pre-hospital use of epinephrine and functional survival among patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) who achieved successful ROSC. METHODS We included all patients with OHCA who achieved successful ROSC admitted to a cardiac arrest center from January 2000 to August 2012. Use of epinephrine was coded as yes/no and by dose (none, 1 mg, 2 to 5 mg, >5 mg). A favorable discharge outcome was coded using a Cerebral Performance Category 1 or 2. Analyses incorporated multivariable logistic regression, propensity scoring, and matching methods. RESULTS Of the 1,556 eligible patients, 1,134 (73%) received epinephrine; 194 (17%) of these patients had a good outcome versus 255 of 422 patients (63%) in the nontreated group (p < 0.001). This adverse association of epinephrine was observed regardless of length of resuscitation or in-hospital interventions performed. Compared with patients who did not receive epinephrine, the adjusted odds ratio of intact survival was 0.48 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.27 to 0.84) for 1 mg of epinephrine, 0.30 (95% CI: 0.20 to 0.47) for 2 to 5 mg of epinephrine, and 0.23 (95% CI: 0.14 to 0.37) for >5 mg of epinephrine. Delayed administration of epinephrine was associated with worse outcome. CONCLUSIONS In this large cohort of patients who achieved ROSC, pre-hospital use of epinephrine was consistently associated with a lower chance of survival, an association that showed a dose effect and persisted despite post-resuscitation interventions. These findings suggest that additional studies to determine if and how epinephrine may provide long-term functional survival benefit are needed.

BACKGROUND The leading cause of sudden cardiac death is myocardial ischemia. As for uncomplicated acute myocardial infarction (AMI), international guidelines plead for early coronary angiography with, in case of culprit lesion, angioplasty and stent implantation. However after cardiac arrest (CA), shock, hypothermia and changes in antiplatelet pharmacokinetic may promote stent thrombosis (ST). Incidence of ST in this situation has never been studied. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate incidence and determinants of ST after ischemic CA successfully revascularized. METHODS We analyzed 208 consecutive patients admitted in our institution for AMI and who underwent PCI with stent implantation. Among these patients, 55 presented a resuscitated CA and were compared to 153 without CA (control group). All patients in the CA group received hypothermia (33 °C for 24 h) following resuscitation and PCI. RESULTS There was no difference between the 2 groups for age, gender, cardiovascular risk factors, coronary lesions and type of stent. In the CA group, patients were less frequently pre-treated with heparin (50.9% vs 98.7%, p<0.001) and aspirin (52.7% vs 99%, p<0.001). In the CA group, we observed a significantly higher incidence of confirmed acute or subacute ST than in the control group: 10.9% vs 2.0% (p=0.01). None of CA patients had received a dual antiplatelets therapy (0% vs 99%). LVEF at admission was lower in the CA group (40.3% vs 48%; p<0.001), and shock was more frequent (83.6% vs 8.5%; p<0.001). Survival at 28 days was 50.1% in CA group vs 98.0% (p<0.001). In multivariate analysis, CA before stenting appears to be an independent risk factor for confirmed ST (OR=12.9; 95%CI 1.3-124.6; p=0.027). CONCLUSION In CA patients treated with cooling, stenting for AMI is associated with a high risk of ST. Shock, insufficient antithrombotic treatment, pharmacokinetic changes related to hypothermia may contribute to this higher risk. A strategy aiming to reduce this complication may probably improve prognosis of patients who underwent coronary sudden death.

Aims: To compare the efficacy of three vasodilators in preventing radial artery spasm (RAS) in patients undergoing transradial percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). Methods and Results: 731 patients were randomized to receive diltiazem 5 mg, verapamil 2.5 mg, or isosorbide dinitrate (ISDN) 1 mg before coronary intervention. RAS occurred in 20.1% in the whole population and was significantly reduced by verapamil and ISDN compared to diltiazem (16.2, 17.2, and 26.6%, respectively; P < 0.006). There was also a trend towards less severe pain (more than 8 on a numerical scale from 0 [no pain] to 10 [maximal pain]), and less severe RAS (complete catheter blockage or severe pain), among patients treated by verapamil compared to ISDN and diltiazem (1.3% vs. 2.8% vs. 2.9%, P = 0.43 and 5.1% vs. 6.2% vs. 9.5%, respectively, P = 0.13). No difference was found between the three vasodilators in terms of crossover or safety events. Female gender, failure at first attempt to access the radial artery, emergency procedures, and the use of diltiazem were independent predictors of RAS. Conclusion: Verapamil and ISDN considerably reduce the incidence of RAS compared to diltiazem during transradial PCI.

AIM High rates of stent thrombosis (ST) have been reported in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) who require a primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The aim of this study was to assess risk factors of ST in this population with a special focus on antiplatelet therapy administered during the acute phase. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a retrospective observational study in patients treated with primary PCI after OHCA between 2011 and 2013 in our center. All consecutive patients were treated with mild therapeutic hypothermia and dual antiplatelet therapy after primary angioplasty. RESULTS A total of 101 consecutive patients were included in the present analysis. Mean age was 61.3 ± 12.7 years and 75% of patients had an initial ventricular fibrillation. All patients received aspirin before PCI. P2Y12 inhibitors were administered after PCI and included clopidogrel (47.5%), prasugrel (21.8%) or ticagrelor (29.7%). The survival rate at discharge was 44.5%. We identified 11 cases (10.9%) of definite or probable ST (clopidogrel (n=2), prasugrel (n=4) and ticagrelor (n=5)) occurring at a median of 2 days after PCI. No specific predictors were found to be significantly associated with ST. New P2Y12 inhibitors were associated with more ST compared to clopidogrel (17.3% vs. 4.2%; respectively, p=0.05). ST was associated with a decreased left ventricular ejection fraction (p=0.007) and with a trend toward a higher mortality compared to patients without ST (82% vs. 52%, p=0.06). CONCLUSION The incidence of ST in OHCA survivors is high and associated with poor clinical outcome. The use of new oral P2Y12 inhibitors does not appear to be associated with a reduction in ST compared to clopidogrel.

Platelet donation by plateletpheresis is known to induce platelet and coagulation activation but there is no clear relationship between this acquired pre-thrombotic state and acute coronary syndrome in healthy donors. We report an acute myocardial infarction immediately following plateletpheresis in a 57-year-old donor with low atherosclerotic risk profile and no angiographic evidence of atherosclerotic disease strongly suggesting a causal relationship.

Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is considered the optimal approach to the management of ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) when the procedure is performed expeditiously by an experienced team.1 Drug eluting stents (DES) have been shown to reduce the risks of both restenosis and target vessel revascularisation (TVR) after elective PCI, as compared with bare metal stents (BMS) in a broad range of patients and lesions.2 However, most randomised trials comparing DES to BMS have excluded patients with STEMI because of safety and efficacy concerns in this subgroup. Reports from randomised trials and registries have suggested that DES may be associated with increased rates of late stent thrombosis.3 Thrombus is a major component of coronary artery occlusion in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Angioplasty with DES in this setting could therefore theoretically increase the rate of stent thrombosis, but data on this issue are conflicting.4 In addition, drug diffusion could be reduced in the presence of massive thrombus, leading to a potential loss of efficacy against neointimal proliferation. To address these issues, several dedicated randomised controlled trials and registries have assessed the efficacy and safety of DES in the setting of primary PCI for AMI. Most of these studies were performed with sirolimus eluting stents (SES), Cypher (Cordis, Johnson and Johnson), and to a lesser extent with paclitaxel eluting stents (PES), (Taxus, Boston Scientific) and have yielded positive short and long term results in favour of SES and PES. Yet, despite these positive findings, the use of DES during PCI for AMI remains controversial and is still considered ‘off label’ in many countries. The currently available data will be reviewed and put in perspective with clinical practice. To date, 31 studies, 13 randomised trials, and 18 registries have directly compared SES or PES to BMS in …

Methods: Twenty coronary angiograms with multivessel and/or left main CAD were randomly chosen and evaluated by 8 blinded observers: 6 interventional cardiologists and 2 cardiac surgeons (4 staff members, 2 senior fellows, and 2 residents). Each operator estimated 1) a subjective score by classifying the angiograms in the three SYNTAX categories before calculating the SYS and 2) the SYS using the SYS calculator. The interand intra-observer reproducibility was assessed using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) and Cohen’s Kappa. Pearson’s chi square (X2) test was used to compare the subjective score to the SYS and the received treatment to the SYS strategy.
