Abstract

Background: Cardiogenic shock (CS) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a marker of worse prognosis with extremely high mortality rates. We assessed the impact of previous surgical revascularization by CABG or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on in-hospital outcomes of AMI patients with CS undergoing primary PCI. Methods: Between 1/2010 and 5/2019, a total of 1,170 patients were diagnosed with AMI and CS, defined by New York State Percutaneous Coronary Interventions Reporting System (PCIRS) as acute and persistent systolic blood pressure <80 mmHg on mechanical or pharmacological support. Baseline clinical, angiographic and procedural characteristics, as well as in-hospital outcomes were prospectively collected among all patients undergoing primary PCI as part of the New York State PCIRS data collection. Results: There were no significant baseline differences between the two groups. Patients with a prior CABG were older and had a history of congestive heart failure. All other risk factors were similar (Table). There was a trend towards higher mortality rates in post CABG patients but longer length of stay in post PCI patients. The combined endpoint of death, reinfarction, acute kidney failure requiring dialysis or stroke (MARCCE) was numerically higher in post CABG patients but did not reach statistical significance. Conclusions: The results of this study show that in patients with AMI and CS undergoing PCI: 1) Patients with a prior history of CABG are usually older at presentation and had a prior history of heart failure; 2) there was a trend to higher in-hospital mortality rates in post CABG patient but MARCCE rates were similar in both groups.
