Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect and safety of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in elderly patients.Methods 103 consecutive patients with STEMI treated by primary PCI were divided into two groups according to the age:the elderly group [aged≥65 years,with a mean age of (75.7 ±6.2) years(n =49],the non-elderly group [aged<65 years,with a mean age of (43.0±8.6) years(n =54].Clinical characteristics,complications related to PCI procedure and success rate were analyzed,and major cardiovascular events (MACE) were followed up for(5.7 ± 1.2) months.Results The proportion of female,patients with Killip ≥ Ⅲ,three vessels disease and higher level of serum brain natriuretic peptide were higher in elderly group than in non-elderly group (all P<0.05).No significant difference was observed between the two groups in success rate and complications of PCI procedure (both P>0.05).Patients were followed up for (5.7± 1.2) months.The in-hospital and one-month mortalities were higher in elderly group than in non-elderly group [8.2% (4 cases)vs.0% (0 case),10.2%(5 cases) vs.0 % (0 case),respectively,all P<0.05].There was no significant difference in six-month mortality and MACE between the two groups.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that Killip ≥ Ⅲ was related with the increase of one-month mortality in patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI,whereas age was not.Conclusions Primary PCI is effective and safe in elderly patients with STEMI.
