P4621Incidence, management, and in-hospital mortality of cardiogenic shock complicating ST-elevated myocardial infarction in China: insights from the China Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry

Abstract

Abstract Background and purpose Limited data is available on the situation of cardiogenic shock (CS) complicating ST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) in China. This study aims to disclose the incidence, management and in-hospital mortality (IHM) of patients with STEMI complicated by CS (STEMICS) in China and at different levels of hospitals. Methods We queried the 2013–2016 China Acute Myocardial Infarction (CAMI) registry databases to identify patients with STEMI and/or CS (developing before or during hospitalization). The overall and different hospital-level incidence of STEMICS and IHM were analyzed. Results Of 28230 STEMI patients, 2273 patients (8.05%) had CS. The incidence of STEMICS in provincial, prefectural and county-level hospitals were 5.23%, 8.46% and 13.76% (p<0.001), respectively. Primary PCI (PPCI) was performed on 675 patients (29.7%) with STEMICS. The proportion of STEMICS patients undertaking PPCI in provincial, prefectural and county-level hospitals were 46.53%, 31.48% and 8.00% (p<0.001). The overall IHM rate of patients with STEMICS was 49.8% with no difference among the different hospital levels. However, the IHM rate of prehospital STEMICS in county-level hospitals were significantly higher than that in prefectural and provincial hospitals (42.3% versus 33.3% and 28.3%, respectively; p<0.01), while that of in-hospital STEMICS were similar among the different hospital levels (66.5%, 66.9% and 62.2%; provincial, prefectural and county-level hospitals, respectively). After adjustment, the difference of IHM in prehospital STEMICS between county-level hospitals and the other two levels no longer existed. However, once PPCI was excluded from the multivariable adjustment model, the IHM of prehospital STEMICS remained higher in county-level hospitals. Table 1. Differences in IHM of prehospital STEMICS between county-level hospitals and other two levels of hospitals before or after adjustment Provincial hospitals/ County-level hospitals Prefectural hospitals/ County-level hospitals Unadjusted OR (95% CI) 0.54 (0.36, 0.80); P=0.0019 0.68 (0.49, 0.94); P=0.0193 Adjusted OR* (95% CI) 0.63 (0.34, 1.17); P=0.1455 0.64 (0.38, 1.08); P=0.0962 Adjusted OR† (95% CI) 0.49 (0.27, 0.90); P=0.0214 0.54 (0.32, 0.91); P=0.0198 IHM: in-hospital mortality; OR: odd ratio; CI: confidence interval. *Adjusted for baseline characteristics, in-hospital medications and primary PCI; †adjusted for baseline characteristics and in-hospital medications. Figure 1. Flowchart Conclusion The overall incidence and IHM rate of STEMICS in China are still high. Especially, higher IHM rate of prehospital STEMICS is observed in county-level hospitals, which may be attributed to the lower implementation rate of PPCI.
