We describe the current management of patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) over 12 months in Greece.
This was a prospective observational study in ACS patients undergoing PCI from September 2008 to April 2009, capturing practices over 12 months at 22 sites that enrolled 558 eligible patients.
A total of 351 patients suffered from unstable angina or non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (UA/ NSTEMI), while 207 patients suffered from ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). For the UA/NSTEMI group, the median age was 64 years (interquartile range: 55-73), while for the STEMI group the median age was 56 years (interquartile range: 49-66). Stents were placed in 96.4% of patients: bare-metal stents alone were placed in 19% of patients, drug-eluting stents alone in 77.5% of patients, and both types of stent in 3.5% of patients. 74% of UA/NSTEMI patients and 87% of STEMI patients received the first antiplatelet loading dose within 1 day of the episode. 76% of UA/NSTEMI patients underwent PCI within 3 days following the initial ACS symptoms, while 67% of STEMI patients underwent PCI within 1 day of the ACS symptoms. Follow-up data were available for 540 (96.8%) patients. The percentages of patients on antiplatelet therapy and on other medications at the time of hospital discharge and at 12 months post-PCI were as follows: aspirin 98%, 97%; clopidogrel 99%, 96%; statins 81%, 79%; beta-blockers 73%, 72%; calcium blockers 11%, 11%; angiotensin II receptor blockers/angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors 64%, 62%; proton-pump inhibitors 39%, 35%.
In ACS patients treated with PCI in Greece, dual antiplatelet treatment is maintained in a very high percentage through 1 year post-procedure, and drug-eluting stent use is also high.
我们描述了在希腊,12 个月内行经皮冠状动脉介入治疗(PCI)的急性冠状动脉综合征(ACS)患者的当前管理情况。
这是一项前瞻性观察性研究,纳入了 2008 年 9 月至 2009 年 4 月间接受 PCI 的 ACS 患者,共 558 例符合条件的患者在 22 个研究中心入组,记录了 12 个月的治疗情况。
351 例患者患有不稳定型心绞痛或非 ST 段抬高型心肌梗死(UA/NSTEMI),207 例患者患有 ST 段抬高型心肌梗死(STEMI)。UA/NSTEMI 组患者的中位年龄为 64 岁(四分位间距:55-73),STEMI 组患者的中位年龄为 56 岁(四分位间距:49-66)。96.4%的患者置入了支架:单纯使用裸金属支架的患者占 19%,单纯使用药物洗脱支架的患者占 77.5%,同时使用两种支架的患者占 3.5%。74%的 UA/NSTEMI 患者和 87%的 STEMI 患者在发病后 1 天内接受了首次抗血小板负荷剂量。76%的 UA/NSTEMI 患者在初次 ACS 症状后 3 天内行 PCI,67%的 STEMI 患者在 ACS 症状后 1 天内行 PCI。540 例(96.8%)患者可获得随访数据。患者在出院时和 PCI 后 12 个月时的抗血小板治疗和其他药物的使用率如下:阿司匹林 98%,97%;氯吡格雷 99%,96%;他汀类药物 81%,79%;β受体阻滞剂 73%,72%;钙通道阻滞剂 11%,11%;血管紧张素 II 受体阻滞剂/血管紧张素转换酶抑制剂 64%,62%;质子泵抑制剂 39%,35%。
在希腊接受 PCI 治疗的 ACS 患者中,双联抗血小板治疗在术后 1 年的保持率非常高,药物洗脱支架的使用率也很高。
