Follow up of Complete Revascularization versus Culprit Revascularization in ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients Undergoing Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

摘要

Objectives: To compare between only Culprit revascularization versus total revascularization in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary PCI with 6 months follow up of occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACCE). Methods: 50 patients were enrolled in this study during the period from 1/11/2018 to 1/11/2019 at Menoufiya University and national heart institute. All patients present with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction within 24 hours of onset of symptoms, and have multi vessel coronary artery disease on angiography suitable for PCI. Patients were subjected to detailed medical history, physical examination, and electrocardiography. Results: 50 patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (28 females and 22 males) underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention. 25 patients had total revascularization to all coronary arteries, the other 25 patients had only culprit revascularization. We found that there was a significant reduction in the incidence of recurrent chest pain and non-fatal Myocardial infarction in the total revascularization group. Conclusion: Our study showed that Multivessel revascularization resulted in an improved clinical course and a significant reduction of MACCE regarding non-fatal MI and a significant reduction of recurrent chest pain.
