Cardiogenic shock (CS) is the leading cause of in-hospital mortality in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Only limited data are available on the long-term outcome of STEMI patients with CS undergoing contemporary treatment. We aimed to investigate long-term mortality and its predictors in STEMI patients with CS and to develop a risk score for long-term mortality prediction.
We retrospectively included 465 patients with STEMI complicated by CS and treated with primary angioplasty and intra-aortic balloon pump between 2005 and 2018. Long-term mortality, including both in-hospital mortality and all-cause mortality following discharge from the index hospitalization, was the primary endpoint. The long-term mortality (median follow-up 4 (2.0-5.2) years) was 60%, including in-hospital mortality (34%). At multivariate analysis, independent predictors of long-term mortality were age (HR 1.41, each 10-year increase), admission left ventricular ejection fraction (HR 1.51, each 10%-unit decrease) and creatinine (HR 1.28, each mg/dl increase), and acute kidney injury (HR 1.81). When these predictors were pooled together, the area under the curve (AUC) for long-term mortality was 0.80 (95% CI 0.75-0.84). Using the four variables, we developed a risk score with a mean (cross-validation analysis) AUC of 0.79. When the score was applied to in-hospital mortality, its AUC was 0.79, and 0.76 when the score was applied to all-cause mortality following discharge.
In STEMI patients with CS, the risk of death is still substantial in the years following the index event. A simple clinical score at the time of the index event accurately predicts long-term mortality risk.
心源性休克(CS)是ST段抬高型心肌梗死(STEMI)患者院内死亡的主要原因。关于接受当代治疗的STEMI合并CS患者的长期预后,仅有有限的数据。我们旨在研究STEMI合并CS患者的长期死亡率及其预测因素,并开发一种用于预测长期死亡率的风险评分。
我们回顾性纳入了2005年至2018年间465例STEMI合并CS并接受直接血管成形术和主动脉内球囊反搏治疗的患者。长期死亡率,包括院内死亡率和首次住院出院后的全因死亡率,是主要终点。长期死亡率(中位随访4(2.0 - 5.2)年)为60%,包括院内死亡率(34%)。多因素分析显示,长期死亡率的独立预测因素为年龄(HR 1.41,每增加10岁)、入院时左心室射血分数(HR 1.51,每降低10%)、肌酐(HR 1.28,每增加1mg/dl)以及急性肾损伤(HR 1.81)。当将这些预测因素合并在一起时,长期死亡率的曲线下面积(AUC)为0.80(95%CI 0.75 - 0.84)。使用这四个变量,我们开发了一个风险评分,其平均(交叉验证分析)AUC为0.79。当将该评分应用于院内死亡率时,其AUC为0.79,应用于出院后全因死亡率时,AUC为0.76。
在STEMI合并CS患者中,首次事件后的数年死亡风险仍然很高。首次事件时的一个简单临床评分能够准确预测长期死亡风险。
