Impact of Bivalirudin and Paclitaxel-Eluting Stents on Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention of the Left Anterior Descending Artery
In conclusion, in patients with STEMI who underwent primary PCI of LAD, the use of bivalirudin was associated with a reduction in mortality and bleeding rates at 3 years. PES reduced revascularization rates in this population but did not have a significant impact on mortality.

Air Versus Ground Transport for Patients With ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction: Does Transport Type Affect Patient Outcomes?
This study was conducted to examine whether air versus ground transport from non–percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) centers to PCI centers affects the health and quality of life of persons with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) 30 days after cardiac interventional treatment.Methods: Data for the analysis were collected between January 2006 and December 2008 for 195 patients with STEMI who received no thrombolytic therapy but were transported by air or ground from non-PCI centers to PCI centers for cardiac intervention.Results: Although the observed differences were not statistically significant because of ...

Contemporary Analysis of Incidence and Outcomes of Stent Thrombosis Presenting as ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction in a Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Cohort
There are limited data about the effectiveness of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) for stent thrombosis treatment. We aimed to evaluate the prevalence and outcomes of PPCI in patients with ST elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) due to stent thrombosis, and comparing the outcomes with patients treated for de novo coronary thrombosis. This was an observational cohort study of 2,935 patients who underwent PPCI from 2003 to 2011 with follow-up for a median of 3.0 years (interquartile range 1.2 to 4.6). The primary end point was the first major adverse cardiac event (MACE) defined as death, nonfatal ...

Long-term follow-up of mesh-covered stent implantation in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
CONCLUSIONS: The early safety and efficacy of the MGuard stent was maintained during the long-term follow-up. However, comparative data from ongoing randomized clinical trials are still required to confirm the long-term efficacy of the MGuard stent implantation in patients with STEMI.

Association Between Intraprocedural Thrombotic Events and Adverse Outcomes After Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (a Harmonizing Outcomes With RevasculariZatiON and Stents in Acute Myocardial Infarction HORIZONS-AMI Substudy)
The present study sought to determine the extent to which adverse angiographic events encountered during percutaneous coronary intervention for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) are associated with adverse clinical outcomes. Patients with STEMI represent a cohort at particularly high risk of intraprocedural thrombotic events (IPTEs). The overall frequency and implications of IPTEs occurring in patients with STEMI have not been systematically quantified in previous studies. A total of 3,163 patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention with stent implantation for STEMI in the Harmonizing Ou...

One‐Year Outcome of Patients With Atrial Fibrillation Undergoing Coronary Artery Stenting: An Analysis of the AFCAS Registry
ConclusionsIn this large, real‐world population of AF patients undergoing PCI‐S, TT was the antithrombotic regimen most frequently prescribed. Although several limitations need to be acknowledged, in our study the 1‐year efficacy and safety of TT, dual antiplatelet therapy, and VKA plus clopidogrel was comparable.

Impact of Obstructive Sleep Apnea on Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients Treated With Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: Rationale and Design of the Sleep and Stent Study
ABSTRACT Elucidating the effects of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on cardiovascular outcomes is crucial in risk assessments and therapeutic recommendations for affected individuals. The Sleep and Stent Study is a multicenter observational study investigating the relationships between OSA and cardiovascular outcomes in patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Eight centers in 5 countries (Singapore, China and Hong Kong, India, Myanmar, and Brazil) are participating in the study, and the recruitment target is 1600 patients. Adult patients age 18 to 80 years who have undergone successful PCI are eligibl...

CHADS2, CHA2DS2-VASc and HAS-BLED as predictors of outcome in patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention
Conclusions: High CHA2DS2-VASc score was the best predictor of thrombotic outcomes after PCI in a high risk AF population. High mHAS-BLED score was not predictive of bleeding events. More accurate, simple risk scores are needed.

Ticagrelor Effects on Myocardial Infarction and the Impact of Event Adjudication in the PLATO (Platelet Inhibition and Patient Outcomes) Trial
ConclusionsIn patients with ACS, ticagrelor significantly reduced the incidence of MI compared with clopidogrel, with consistent results across most MI subtypes. CEC procedures identified more MI endpoints compared with site investigators. (A Comparison of Ticagrelor [AZD6140] and Clopidogrel in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome [PLATO]; NCT00391872)

Risk Assessment to Predict Arterial and Venous Events in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Atherosclerosis and venous thromboembolism (VTE) share common risk factors. We set to assess the strength of the association between atherosclerosis risk factors and disease manifestation, and VTE, in patients with coronary artery disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. We pooled data from 6 global randomized controlled trials assessing coronary stenting (ENDEAVOR and SIRIUS programs), developed separate risk scores to predict major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs: cardiac death, myocardial infarction, and stroke) and VTE, and compared their performance. The 5-year rates of MACCE and VTE w...
