Abstract

Background Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) permits robust risk stratification of discharged ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction patients, but its indiscriminate use in all cases is not feasible. We evaluated the utility of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) by echocardiography for a selective use of CMR after ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction. Methods Echocardiography and CMR were performed in 1119 patients discharged for ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction included in a multicenter registry. The prognostic power of CMR beyond echocardiography-LVEF was assessed using adjusted C statistic, net reclassification improvement index, and integrated discrimination improvement index. Results During a 4.8-year median follow-up, 136 (12%) first major adverse cardiac events (MACE) occurred (47 cardiovascular deaths and 89 readmissions for acute heart failure). In the entire group, CMR-LVEF (but not echocardiography-LVEF) independently predicted MACE occurrence. The MACE rate significantly increased only in patients with CMR-LVEF<40% (≥50%: 7%, 40%-49%: 9%, <40%: 27%, <0.001). Most patients displayed echocardiography-LVEF≥50% (629, 56%), and they had a low MACE rate (57/629, 9%). In patients with echocardiography-LVEF<50% (n=490, 44%), the MACE rate was also low in those with CMR-LVEF≥40% (24/278, 9%) but significantly increased in patients with CMR-LVEF<40% (55/212, 26%; <0.001). Compared with echocardiography-LVEF, CMR-LVEF significantly improved MACE prediction in the group of patients with echocardiography-LVEF<50% (C statistic, 0.80 versus 0.72; net reclassification improvement index, 0.73; integrated discrimination improvement index, 0.10) but not in those with echocardiography-LVEF≥50% (C statistic 0.66 versus 0.66; net reclassification improvement index, 0.17; integrated discrimination improvement index, 0.01). Conclusions A straightforward strategy based on a selective use of CMR for risk prediction in ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction patients with echocardiography-LVEF<50% can provide insights into patient care. The cost-effectiveness of this approach, as well as the direct implications in clinical management, should be further explored.

摘要

背景

心脏磁共振（CMR）可对出院的 ST 段抬高型心肌梗死患者进行强有力的风险分层，但在所有情况下不加区分地使用是不可行的。我们评估了超声心动图左心室射血分数（LVEF）在 ST 段抬高型心肌梗死患者中选择性使用 CMR 的效用。

方法

在一项多中心注册研究中，对 1119 例出院的 ST 段抬高型心肌梗死患者进行了超声心动图和 CMR 检查。使用校正的 C 统计量、净重新分类改善指数和综合判别改善指数评估 CMR 除超声心动图-LVEF 之外的预后能力。

结果

在中位随访 4.8 年期间，136 例（12%）首次发生主要不良心脏事件（MACE）（47 例心血管死亡和 89 例急性心力衰竭再入院）。在整个组中，CMR-LVEF（而非超声心动图-LVEF）独立预测 MACE 发生。仅在 CMR-LVEF<40%的患者中，MACE 发生率显著增加（≥50%：7%，40%-49%：9%，<40%：27%，<0.001）。大多数患者的超声心动图-LVEF≥50%（629 例，56%），MACE 发生率较低（57/629，9%）。在超声心动图-LVEF<50%的患者中（n=490，44%），CMR-LVEF≥40%的患者 MACE 发生率也较低（27/278，9%），但 CMR-LVEF<40%的患者 MACE 发生率显著增加（55/212，26%；<0.001）。与超声心动图-LVEF 相比，CMR-LVEF 显著改善了超声心动图-LVEF<50%患者的 MACE 预测（C 统计量，0.80 与 0.72；净重新分类改善指数，0.73；综合判别改善指数，0.10），但在超声心动图-LVEF≥50%的患者中未改善（C 统计量 0.66 与 0.66；净重新分类改善指数，0.17；综合判别改善指数，0.01）。
