Major bleeding significantly impacts outcomes in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). No uniform definitions exist for major and minor bleeding. Hematomas > or =5 cm at the femoral puncture site are considered major bleeding events in some trials and minor in others. Limited information is available on the incidence and clinical relevance of hematomas > or =5 cm in PCI patients.
Data from the STEEPLE trial in patients undergoing elective PCI were used to assess the impact of hematomas > or =5 cm on ischemic outcomes (mortality, nonfatal myocardial infarction, or urgent target vessel revascularization) up to day 30 and all-cause 1-year mortality. Hematoma data were available for 3,342 of 3,528 patients in STEEPLE. Patients with (n = 103) and without (n = 3,239) hematomas > or =5 cm were evenly distributed across treatment groups.
No differences were observed in 30-day ischemic outcomes between patients with and without hematomas (5.8% vs 5.9%, respectively; P = .96). No transfusions were observed in patients with hematomas as compared with patients without hematomas (0% and 0.4%, respectively; P = .52). A greater reduction in hemoglobin was observed (pre- vs post-PCI) in patients with hematomas as compared with patients without hematomas (-0.84 vs -0.35 g/L, P < or = .001). No significant difference in all-cause 1-year mortality was observed between patients with and without hematomas (0.0% vs 1.7%, P = .98).
After PCI, hematomas > or =5 cm had no effect on 30-day ischemic events or 1-year mortality. Although there is no agreed classification for large hematomas, the lack of a relationship between hematomas > or =5 cm and clinical outcome after PCI justifies the classification of these hematomas as minor bleeds in STEEPLE.
在接受经皮冠状动脉介入治疗(PCI)的患者中,大出血显著影响其结局。对于大出血和小出血尚无统一的定义。一些试验中,股动脉穿刺部位血肿>5cm 被认为是大出血事件,而另一些试验中则被认为是小出血。关于 PCI 患者中血肿>5cm 的发生率及其临床相关性,目前仅有有限的信息。
使用在接受择期 PCI 的患者中进行的 STEEPLE 试验的数据,评估血肿>5cm 对缺血性结局(死亡、非致死性心肌梗死或紧急靶血管血运重建)的影响,直至第 30 天以及全因 1 年死亡率。STEEPLE 中血肿数据可用于 3528 例患者中的 3342 例。有(n=103)和无(n=3239)血肿>5cm 的患者在治疗组之间均匀分布。
在有和无血肿的患者中,30 天缺血性结局无差异(分别为 5.8%和 5.9%,P=.96)。与无血肿患者相比,有血肿患者未观察到输血(分别为 0%和 0.4%,P=.52)。与无血肿患者相比,有血肿患者血红蛋白下降更多(PCI 前 vs PCI 后)(-0.84 vs -0.35g/L,P<或=.001)。有和无血肿患者的全因 1 年死亡率无显著差异(分别为 0.0%和 1.7%,P=.98)。
在 PCI 后,血肿>5cm 对 30 天缺血事件或 1 年死亡率没有影响。尽管对于大血肿尚无公认的分类,但在 STEEPLE 中,血肿>5cm 与 PCI 后临床结局之间无关联,这证明将这些血肿归类为小出血是合理的。
