It is crucial to investigate whether there are prognostic disparities among AMI-CS patients undergoing VA-ECMO support. However, there is currently limited data available from China.
To evaluate the gender differences in the characteristics, management, and outcomes among patients with AMI-CS received VA-ECMO support in China.
Patients admitted with AMI-CS at the Chest Pain Center of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region People's Hospital between 2018 and 2023 were included. Sex differences in baseline characteristics, in-hospital management, and outcomes were compared. The primary endpoint was in-hospital mortality. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to reduce the impact of baseline clinical differences. Cox regression analysis was conducted to assess the association between gender and in-hospital mortality.
Among 193 patients presenting with AMI-CS, 15.54% were women. Women were older (67.23 ± 13 vs. 60.37 ± 12.98, = 0.0028), had a higher prevalence of comorbidities, and a lower proportion of smoking history. Women were less likely to receive vascular reconstruction (70% vs. 88%, = 0.023), had a significantly shorter duration of ECMO support (2.72 days vs. 4.87 days, = 0.027), as well as shorter hospitalization days compared to male patients (11.73 ± 10.52 vs. 16.89 ± 10.74, = 0.026). In-hospital all-cause mortality was notably higher among female patients (90.0%) compared to male patients (71.2%, = 0.023). However, after PSM, the difference in in-hospital mortality rates between genders was not statistically significant ( = 0.16).
In this retrospective study, women were less likely to receive revascularization and exhibited worse in-hospital outcomes compared to men. However, the observed sex difference in in-hospital mortality was attenuated after adjusting for clinical characteristics and acute treatments among AMI-CS patients receiving ECMO support.
调查接受VA-ECMO支持的急性心肌梗死合并心源性休克(AMI-CS)患者之间是否存在预后差异至关重要。然而,目前中国的相关数据有限。
评估在中国接受VA-ECMO支持的AMI-CS患者在特征、治疗和结局方面的性别差异。
纳入2018年至2023年期间在广西壮族自治区人民医院胸痛中心收治的AMI-CS患者。比较基线特征、住院治疗情况和结局方面的性别差异。主要终点是住院死亡率。进行倾向评分匹配(PSM)以减少基线临床差异的影响。进行Cox回归分析以评估性别与住院死亡率之间的关联。
在193例AMI-CS患者中,女性占15.54%。女性年龄更大(67.23±13岁 vs. 60.37±12.98岁,P = 0.0028),合并症患病率更高,吸烟史比例更低。女性接受血管重建的可能性较小(70% vs. 88%,P = 0.023),ECMO支持时间显著更短(2.72天 vs. 4.87天,P = 0.027),与男性患者相比住院天数也更短(11.73±10.52天 vs. 16.89±10.74天,P = 0.026)。女性患者的住院全因死亡率显著高于男性患者(90.0% vs. 71.2%,P = 0.023)。然而,PSM后,性别之间的住院死亡率差异无统计学意义(P = 0.16)。
在这项回顾性研究中,与男性相比,女性接受血运重建的可能性较小,住院结局更差。然而,在对接受ECMO支持的AMI-CS患者的临床特征和急性治疗进行调整后,观察到的住院死亡率性别差异有所减弱。
