Cold saline and endovascular cooling induces rapid hypothermia before reperfusion in STEMI patients treated with primary PCI, is safe and reduces infarct size with a scattered myocardial salvage Presented by Prof David Erlinge, MD, PhD, On behalf of the RAPID MI-ICE Investigators Matthias Götberg, MD, Göran Olivecrona, MD,PhD, Sasha Koul, MD, Marcus Carlsson, MD, PhD, Henrik Engblom, MD, PhD, Martin Ugander, MD, PhD, Jesper van der Pals, MD, Lars Algotsson, MD, PhD Håkan Arheden, MD, PhD, David Erlinge, MD, PhD Lund University, Skane University Hospital Lund, Sweden Disclosure statement: The study was partly sponsored by an unrestricted research grant from Innercool Therapies, a fully owned subsidiary of Philips Healthcare.
Hypothermia in Acute MI • A large number of animal studies have shown that hypothermia reduces myocardial infarct size1-2. • In a pig model, we have shown that myocardial infarct size is significantly reduced only if the temperature < 35°C before reperfusion3. • Two large randomized trials using hypothermia as adjunct treatment to primary PCI in patients with acute MI (ICE-IT4 and COOL MI5), failed to reach primary endpoint. However, only 1/3 of the patients randomized to hypothermia reached a core body temperature < 35°C at the time of reperfusion. • The subgroups of patients randomized to hypothermia and who reached • < 35°C at the time of reperfusion seemed to benefit (RRR 49% and 43% respectively) 1 Duncker et al. 1996 (Am J Physiol 270, H1189),2 Dae MW, et al. 2002 (Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol 282:H1584-91).,3 Götberg M et al .

Hypothermia in Acute MI We hypotesized that a combination of cold saline and endovascular cooling would cool all patients to target temp < 35°C before primary PCI reperfusion.

Conclusions • Rapid induction of hypothermia with 1-2 l cold saline and endovascular catheter is safe and feasible in awake patients with acute MI. • All patients reached target temperature, <35°C, at the time of reperfusion. • Myocardial infarct size was significantly reduced. • Troponin T release was significantly reduced. • Hypothermia disrupts the wavefront phenomenon into a speckled infarction. • A Randomized multicenter trial with hypothermia to reduce infarct size is planned (CHILL-MI).
