Increased level of N-terminal pro-B type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is known to be associated with adverse outcome in patients with acute coronary syndrome. We evaluated early outcomes of patients with acute ST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) according to the level of NT-proBNP as a substudy of Korean Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry (KAMIR).
Study population consisted of 1052 consecutive patients (mean 61.3+/-12.8 years old, male 73.2%) with STEMI of onset <12 h who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and who had baseline NT-proBNP level by electrochemiluminescence immnunoassay (ECLIA, NT-proBNP kit, Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany). The study subjects were divided into two groups according to the level of serum NT-proBNP.
Patients with NT-proBNP level >991 pg/mL (n=329, 57.1% male) had lower left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF) (47.8+/-11.8% vs. 53.0+/-10.8%, p<0.001), needed longer intensive care (3.7+/-3.6 days vs. 2.8+/-2.4 days, p<0.001) and had higher in-hospital mortality (1.3% vs. 7.4%, p<0.001) than those with NT-proBNP level<or=991 pg/mL (n=723, 80.5% male). Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that the independent predictors of in-hospital mortality were LVEF<45% (OR 5.43, 95% CI 1.71 to 17.29, p=0.004), elevated NT-proBNP (>991 pg/mL) (OR 3.70, 95% CI 1.14 to 12.03, p=0.030), old age (>or=70 years) (OR 4.71, 95% CI 1.43 to 15.52, p=0.011), advanced Killip class (>1) (OR 4.96, 95% CI 1.58 to 15.53, p=0.006), male gender (OR 5.67, 95% CI 1.45 to 22.21, p=0.013) and TIMI flow 0 before PCI (OR 5.04, 95% CI 1.08 to 23.41, p=0.039).
This study suggests that baseline NT-proBNP level is associated with short term mortality in patients with STEMI underwent primary PCI.
已知N末端B型利钠肽原(NT-proBNP)水平升高与急性冠脉综合征患者的不良预后相关。作为韩国急性心肌梗死注册研究(KAMIR)的一项子研究,我们根据NT-proBNP水平评估了急性ST段抬高型心肌梗死(STEMI)患者的早期预后。
研究人群包括1052例连续的STEMI患者(平均年龄61.3±12.8岁,男性占73.2%),发病时间<12小时,接受了直接经皮冠状动脉介入治疗(PCI),且通过电化学发光免疫分析(ECLIA,NT-proBNP检测试剂盒,德国曼海姆罗氏诊断公司)检测了基线NT-proBNP水平。研究对象根据血清NT-proBNP水平分为两组。
NT-proBNP水平>991 pg/mL的患者(n = 329,男性占57.1%)的左心室射血分数(LVEF)较低(47.8±11.8%对53.0±10.8%,p<0.001),需要更长时间的重症监护(3.7±3.6天对2.8±2.4天,p<0.001),且院内死亡率更高(1.3%对7.4%,p<0.001),而NT-proBNP水平≤991 pg/mL的患者(n = 723,男性占80.5%)则不然。多因素逻辑回归分析显示,院内死亡的独立预测因素为LVEF<45%(比值比5.43,95%置信区间1.71至17.29,p = 0.004)、NT-proBNP升高(>991 pg/mL)(比值比3.70,95%置信区间1.14至12.03,p = 0.030)、老年(≥70岁)(比值比4.71,95%置信区间1.43至15.52,p = 0.011)、Killip分级较高(>1)(比值比4.96,95%置信区间1.58至15.53,p = 0.006)、男性(比值比5.67,95%置信区间1.45至22.21,p = 0.013)以及PCI前TIMI血流0级(比值比5.04,95%置信区间1.08至23.41,p = 0.039)。
本研究表明,基线NT-proBNP水平与接受直接PCI的STEMI患者的短期死亡率相关。
