Thrombocytopenia (TC) following a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been associated not only with hemorrhagic, but also with ischemic outcomes. The purpose of this study was to re-examine the relationship of TC with ischemic events at a 1-year follow-up, and investigate the possible associations.
We studied a real-world, unselected population of ischemic patients undergoing PCI, totaling 861 patients-year, and divided into two groups: with TC (delta platelet count ≥25% from baseline to post-PCI during the hospital admission) and without TC. Compared with patients without TC, patients with TC had a higher and earlier incidence of both hemorrhagic and ischemic events. In them, the use of intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) was ten-fold higher. In Kaplan-Meier curves assessing the contribution of both TC and IABP to outcome, IABP was a univariate detrimental factor additive to the role of TC. In a forced Cox model, the relative decline (delta) in platelet count (p=0.05) and the use of IABP (p=0.0001) were both associated with ischemic outcomes. After excluding all patients with IABP, the delta platelet count was no longer significantly associated with ischemic outcomes (p=0.66). After excluding all patients with shock and all those who undergone thrombolysis, there was still a relationship (p=0.0042) between the delta platelet count and ischemic events.
In this patient population the use of IABP, but not thrombocytopenia per se, is a possible primary cause of worse ischemic outcomes.
经皮冠状动脉介入治疗(PCI)后血小板减少症(TC)不仅与出血有关,而且与缺血事件有关。本研究的目的是在 1 年随访时重新检查 TC 与缺血事件的关系,并探讨可能的关联。
我们研究了一个真实的、未经选择的接受 PCI 的缺血患者人群,共 861 例患者年,分为两组:TC 组(从基线到住院期间 PCI 后血小板计数下降≥25%)和非 TC 组。与无 TC 组相比,TC 组患者的出血和缺血事件发生率更高且更早。在 TC 组患者中,使用主动脉内球囊泵(IABP)的比例高十倍。在评估 TC 和 IABP 对结局影响的 Kaplan-Meier 曲线中,IABP 是 TC 作用的附加单一不利因素。在强制 Cox 模型中,血小板计数的相对下降(p=0.05)和 IABP 的使用(p=0.0001)均与缺血结局相关。排除所有使用 IABP 的患者后,血小板计数的下降(p=0.66)与缺血结局不再显著相关。排除所有休克患者和所有接受溶栓治疗的患者后,血小板计数的下降(p=0.0042)与缺血事件仍存在相关性。
在本患者人群中,IABP 的使用,而不是血小板减少症本身,可能是缺血结局恶化的一个主要原因。
