Severe Hemorrhagedefinition • Fatal • Intracranial • Cardiac tamponade • Clinically significant hemorrhage with decrease Hb > 5 gm/dl with each unit of transfusion counting for 1 gm/dl Hb
Severe Hemorrhage by type of reperfusion therapy at 180 Days
Elderly patients with STEMI • Higher risk of adverse outcome • Higher risk of bleeding with thrombolytics • Higher risk of bleeding with anticoagulants • Net clinical outcome not predictable
Elderly patients in OASIS 6methods • Post hoc analysis • ≥75 years versus < 75 years • Primary endpoints as in main study • Net clinical benefit: death, MI, severe hemorrhage at 30 days
Death and MI at 30 days ≥75 Yr ≥75 Yr ≥75 Yr ≥75 Yr
Death and MI at 30 days ≥ 75 Yr ≥75 Yr ≥75 Yr ≥75 Yr
conclusions In patients with STEMI who are not treated with PPCI: • The efficacy and safety of fondaparinux as compared to control treatment are consistent across age groups • Consequently, the net clinical benefit of fondaparinux is consistent across age groups
