Abstract:
Objective To compare the rates of major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)and bleeding events of three different antiplatelet strategies during temporary withdrawal of antiplatelet therapy for non-cardiac surgery within 1 year after drug-eluting stent (DES)implantation.Methods Retrospectively analyzed 42 patients who had accepted non-cardiac surgery and required temporary withdrawal of antiplatelet therapy within 1 year after drug-eluting stent implantation. The patients were divided into three groups according to the bridging antiplatelet strategies they received.All patients discontinued clopidogrel 5 to 7 days before the non-cardiac surgery. The tirofiban group was treated with intravenous tirofiban 0.4ug/kg·min in the first 30 min followed 0.1μg/(kg·min). The dosage was reduced by half for patients whose Creatinine clearance were less than 30 ml/min.The low molecular weight heparin group was treated with subcutaneous enoxaparin (Clexane 4000 AxaIU, once per day) .The asprin group was given only oral asprin(100 mg, once per day) . Tirofiban and low molecular weight heparin were continued until clopidogrel was resured. Perioperative cardiovascular events and serious bleeding were recorded. Results The rates of major adverse cardiac events in the tirofiban and the low molecular weight heparin group were lower than the aspirin group. Acute myocardial infarction caused by confirmed in-stent thrombosis was diagnosed in one patient in the aspirin group. One case of asymptomatic ST-T changes was found in the low molecular weight the aspirin group. 3 cases in the aspirin group presented ST-T changes on ECG and among them 1 case was STEMI due to LAD thrombosis requiring primary and 2 other cases were agina pectoris.There were no significant differences in bleeding events among the three groups.Conclusions Potential for the perioperative management with tirofiban or low molecular weight heparin is safe and feasible for patients who had recently undergone DES implantation and required noncardiac surgery with the interruption of antiplatelet therapies.
