Abstract

Introduction and Hypothesis: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has tended to be selected for the treatment of acute coronary syndrome with cardiogenic shock because of its ability of earlier and less-invasive therapy, though coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) can perform complete revascularization. We hypothesized that Impella® support has the potential to make surgical treatment much safer because Impella® can improve hemodynamic state and could have the possibility to mitigate myocardial ischemia by unloading the left ventricle. Methods: The aim of study is to investigate if surgical revascularization is safe and effective treatment by comparing short-term outcome with different revascularization including PCI, CABG, and hybrid therapy (PCI followed by CABG). Of 1102 cardiogenic shock cases with Impella (994 cases in PCI, 48 cases in CABG, and 63 cases in Hybrid therapy) between February 2020 and December 2021 enrolled in the J-PVAD registry, short-term outcomes were compared between 62 propensity-matched cases between PCI (n=31) and CABG (n=31), as well as 68 matched cases between PCI (n=34) and hybrid therapy (n=34). Results: There was no difference in all-cause mortality between the PCI and CABG group as well as PCI and hybrid therapy group. The PCI group had a greater number of NYHA class≦2 at discharge than the CABG group (17 (54.8%) in the PCI group vs 10 (32.2%) in the CABG group, p=0.012). There was no difference in the number of NYHA class≦2 at discharge between the PCI and hybrid therapy group (18 (52.9%) in the PCI group vs 15 (44.1%) in the hybrid therapy group, p=0.12). Conclusions: CABG and hybrid therapy showed acceptable short-term outcome compared to PCI.
