Impact of acute hyperglycemia after primary angioplasty for acute myocardial infarction - 05/01/18
Résumé |
Introduction |
Hyperglycemia (HG) has been shown to be a powerful predictor of worse outcome after ST segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Aim |
Investigate the relationship between acute HG and angiographic and clinical outcome after primary or rescue angioplasty for STEMI.
Methods |
We retrospectively included 489 patients who underwent revascularization for STEMI. We compared hospital outcomes of patients with HG (HG+) with those without HG (HG−) and outcomes of diabetic with non-diabetic patients in the HG+ group. Plasma glucose was measured at hospital admission. HG was defined as plasma glucose>11mmol/L (198mg/dL).
Results |
Among the overall population, 184 (37.6%) patients had HG. Procedural success was significantly lower in the HG+ group (86% vs. 92%, P=0.05) with lower rates of ST segment resolution at 24hours (47.3% vs. 61.4%, P=0.006). Hospital outcomes were worse in the HG+ group with a higher mortality (20% vs. 10.4%, P=0.008). Predictive factors for intrahospital mortality in the overall cohort were: procedural failure (OR: 4.76; 95% CI [1.65–13.7]; P=0.004), heart failure at admission (OR: 9.75; 95% CI [4.14–22.87]; P<0.001), anemia (OR: 4.22; 95% CI [2.06–8.63]; P<0.001), high serum creatinine level (OR: 1.09; 95% CI [1.03–1.14]; P=0.001), high glycemia (OR: 2.66; 95% CI [1.2–5.9]; P=0.016). Diabetes did not predict hospital mortality (P=0.64) even in the group of patients with hyperglycemia. In non-diabetic patients (n=260), HG was associated with larger infarct size (P=0.001) and more adverse outcome (P=0.009). In the same group, HbA1c was associated with one year mortality (P=0.02).
Conclusion |
In patients with STEMI, HG is an important predictor of worse outcomes with an increased mortality risk even beyond 11mmol/L. In non-diabetic patients, both elevated glucose and HbA1c levels were associated with adverse outcomes.
