Major adverse cardiovascular events in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass graft with underlying chronic kidney disease

Abstract

To assess early and late outcome in severe chronic kidney disease patients undergoing revascularisation. The retrospective ambi-directional cohort study was conducted at Tabba Heart Institute, Karachi, and comprised data from May, 2012, to July,2016, related to severe chronic kidney disease patients with creatinine clearance <30ml/min or end-stage renal disease on haemodialysis who had undergone coronary artery bypass graft / percutaneous coronary intervention. Early outcome was in-hospital major adverse cardiac event, like mortality, stroke and new haemodialysis. Late outcome was major adverse cardiac event, like mortality, stroke, re infarction and re-revascularisation. Data was analysed using Stata 12.1. Of the 228 patients with mean age of 64.2±10.8 years, 109(47.8%) with a maen age of 65.4±11.6 had undergone percutaneous coronary intervention, and 119(52.2%) with a mean age of 64.2±10.8 years had undergone coronary artery bypass graft. Overall mortality was 36(15.8%) patients; 15(13.7%) percutaneous coronary intervention, 21(17.6%)coronary artery bypass graft (p>0.05). Predictors of in-hospital adverse events were coronary artery bypass graft and cardiogenic shock (p<0.05). Follow-up was available in 181(94.3%) patients with a mean duration of 22.0±13.9 months. Heart failure and post-procedure stroke were independent predictors of late outcome (p<0.05). Among patients with severe chronic kidney disease or end stage renal disease undergoing revascularisation, percutaneous coronary intervention PCI was performed in patients with less complex anatomy or as emergency for acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Coronary artery bypass graft patients had higher early mortality, but improved late survival.
