LATE PERCUTANEOUS CORONARY INTERVENTION AFTER MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION: A META-ANALYSIS Presenter: Darryn L. Appleton, MBChB Coauthors: Antonio Abbate, MD, Giuseppe GL Biondi-Zoccai, MD, Venkat Ramachandran, MD, Michael J. Lipinski, MD, Pierfrancesco Agostoni, MD, George W Vetrovec, MD
Background • Late presentation with acute STEMI a relatively common and challenging problem • Clear evidence supporting efficacy of primary PCI early in acute STEMI (within 12hrs) • Utility of PCI late in the course of STEMI in otherwise stable patients (>12hrs) has not been proven
Late Open-Artery Hypothesis • Late patency of the IRA correlates closely with improved survival after acute MI • Observational studies (retrospective) have shown improved outcomes in patients with patent IRA vs permanent occlusion • Experimental data in lab animals shows increased apoptosis and adverse remodeling with permanent coronary occlusion
Clinical Question & Objectives • Clinical Question: Does mechanical intervention (PCI) to achieve reperfusion of the IRA late in the course of acute MI (>12hrs from symptom onset) translate to clinical benefit? • Hypothesis: That PCI late in acute MI improves survival by means of reduced adverse remodeling and improved cardiac function • Objectives: to perform a meta-analysis of all relevant trials testing the above hypothesis
Methods • Databases: Pubmed, PubMed Central and mRCT • Search updated Sept 06 (and later March 07) • Search terms: • ‘randomized’, ‘percutaneous coronary intervention’, ‘PCI’, ‘stent’, ‘angioplasty’, ‘revasc*’, ‘recanaliz*’, ‘acute myocardial infarction’, ‘AMI’, ‘infarct*’, ‘occlusion’, ‘occlu*’(where * denotes a wildcard) • Inclusion criteria for trials: • Random treatment allocation • Comparison of PCI to optimal medical management • Randomized >12 hrs following onset of proven acute myocardial infarction • Hemodynamically stable patients that would not need and urgent cardiac cathetization for other indications such as post-infarction angina or inducible ischemia
Methods • Data collection • Pre-specified forms used to collect data on baseline characteristics and outcomes • Statistical methods • performed using Review Manager 4.2.4 • binary outcomes combined with Peto fixed effect model • continuous variables compared using fixed effect inverse variance weighting method • formal Cochran Q chi-square tests performed to investigate heterogeneity between trials • reported values were two-tailed and results were considered statistically significant at the 0.05 level.
Methods • Primary outcome: Death from all causes • Secondary outcomes: • Composite endpoint of death, recurrent MI or hospitalization for CHF • Change in Left-ventricular EF • Cardiac remodeling: changes in ESV and EDV

Limitations • Conflicting results for clinical end-points before and after addition OAT trial data • Inherent limitations of individual studies within meta-analysis impact on overall result • Possible small study selection bias • Wide range of publication dates • Significant improvements in the medical management of acute MI over time • Change in PCI technology itself over time • Some important differences in study design • Lack of apparent statistical heterogeneity • Important to note some key methodologic differences • Pre-treatment with thrombolytics • Inclusion of patients with total IRA occlusion vs “significant stenosis” • Variable length of follow-up
Conclusions • Regarding PCI in stable survivors of acute STEMI, current data including the recent OAT shows that late (> 12hrs) PCI is neithersuperiornor inferior to optimal medical therapy alone in terms of altering survival, or any other combined clinical endpoint
Conclusions • Change in EF and measurements of EDV and ESV show statistically significant improvement with PCI beyond medical therapy alone • Discrepancy between lack of clinical benefit and apparent improvement in EF raises interesting questions: • Is the difference in the change in EF a real phenomenon, and if so, is it large enough to be clinically relevant? • Are benefits of reduction in adverse cardiac remodeling and improved EF offset by late adverse events?

Discussion • Areas of ongoing uncertainty • Patients with contraindications to important medications considered standard of care post-MI, e.g. beta-blockers, statins, ACE inhibitors • Subgroups of patients may preferentially benefit from revascularization in the setting of late MI • Patients with more severe LV dysfunction e.g. < 30% • Patients presenting between 12-72 hours • Patients with demonstrable myocardial viability
