COMMIT: Study design INCLUSION: >45,000 patients with suspected acute MI (ST change orLBBB) within 24 h of symptom onset TREATMENT: Metoprolol 15 mg iv over 15 mins, then 200 mg oral daily vs matching placebo EXCLUSION: Shock, systolic BP <100 mmHg, heart rate <50/min or II/III AV block 1 OUTCOMES: Death & death, re-MI or VF/arrest up to 4 weeks in hospital (or prior discharge) Mean treatment and follow-up: 16 days

Beta-Blockers • Recommendations - Class Ia (B) • ORAL beta-blocker therapy SHOULD BE initiated in the first 24 hours for patients who DO NOT have any of the following: • signs of heart failure, • evidence of a low output state, • increased risk for cardiogenic shock, or • relative contraindications to beta blockade • 1AVB > 0.24 sec, • 2nd- or 3rd-degree heart block • reactive airway disease • ** There is no study evaluating oral beta blockers alone *Risk factors for cardiogenic shock :heart failure, age > 70 , systolic blood pressure < 120, sinus tachycardia > 110 or heart rate < 60, increased time since onset of STEMI symptoms
Beta-Blockers • Recommendations - Class IIa (B) • It is reasonable to administer an IV BETA BLOCKER at the time of presentation to STEMI patients who are HYPERTENSIVE and who do not have any of the following: • signs of heart failure, • evidence of a low output state, • increased risk for cardiogenic shock, or • relative contraindications to beta blockade • 1AVB > 0.24 sec, • 2nd- or 3rd-degree heart block • reactive airway disease *Risk factors for cardiogenic shock :heart failure, age > 70 , systolic blood pressure < 120, sinus tachycardia > 110 or heart rate < 60, increased time since onset of STEMI symptoms
Beta-Blockers • Recommendations - Class III (A) • IV beta blockers SHOULD NOT be administered to STEMI patients who have any of the following: • signs of heart failure • evidence of a low output state • increased risk* for cardiogenic shock • relative contraindications to beta blockade • 1AVB > 0.24 sec, • 2nd- or 3rd-degree heart block • reactive airway disease *Risk factors for cardiogenic shock :heart failure, age > 70 , systolic blood pressure < 120, sinus tachycardia > 110 or heart rate < 60, increased time since onset of STEMI symptoms

Brief Review of Thrombolytic Trials GISSI-1: Streptokinase 18% reduction in mortality at 21 d GUSTO-1: tPA. 15% reduction in 30-day mortality compared to Streptokinase GUSTO-3: Reteplase had no benefit over tPA but is easier to use (double bolus) ASSENT: TNKase is similar to tPA but with less non-cerebral bleeding and better mortality with symptoms>4 hrs: Single bolus, fibrin selective, resistance to PAI-1 *Overall risk of ICH is 0.7%; Strokes occurred in 1.4%
Anticoagulants • Patients undergoing reperfusion with fibrinolytics should receive anticoagulant therapy for a minimum of 48 hours (unfractionated heparin) or up to 8 days • Anticoagulant regimens with established efficacy include: ♥ UFH (LOE: C) ♥ Enoxaparin (LOE:A) ♥ Fondaparinux (LOE:B)
